I've read several books in this series. This title was passed on to me by a friend.

I always like to try to figure out where the title came from or how it ties in to the book. This book has several characters with reflections into their pasts.

George--a WWII vet--whose nightmares were previously only known to his wife--when he suffers an injury that lands him in the hospital, others notice his restless sleep. Once he's home, they encourage him to talk about what turns out to be Operation Tiger.

Abby--returns to her former employer, Cornell University, to attend a seminar. Will she be tempted to return by the prestige or because she misses her former colleagues and work?

Mary--her father's injury brings back memories of her own injury and rehabilitation

Brian is returning home as a sort of prodigal son. He became a bit of a partier in college and almost failed out. Then, he ran off. But now, he is returning home and hoping to resume his college career.

I am a bit sad to leave Sparrow Island again--at least for a time as I have no more books from the series currently. ( )
