A WEEPING WILLOW, an unfinished painting, and the ghost of a man who discovers that death didn't end his problems; it only made them harder to resolve. Is suicide the only solution to unconquerable mental pain? John O'Brien believes it is - until he kills himself and is thrown into an after-life he never expected. John's fifteen-year-old daughter, Maggie, almost dies trying to save him, and her distorted memory of the traumatic event leaves Maggie believing that John is still alive. Maggie sets off on a journey to find her father and the mythical weeping willow he often told her about - a journey that takes her to the world between - and beyond. When Maggie meets imminent danger, John is her only hope for survival. Is it possible for him to cross the boundary between life and death - to save his daughter one last time? A blend of fantasy and the supernatural, The Weeping Willow Sings provides a glimpse into the theory of life after death and the possibility for the dead to make amends with those still living. A moving depiction about the secrets families keep, the tragic side of mental illness and the bond between a father and daughter, The Weeping Willow Sings reminds us all that love never dies.
