Heart Failure

(2014)
A Story by

 
 
Steve's only 15 when his favorite lead singer dies. That loss makes him fear another. Older brother Tom is in the army, deployed to a war zone an ocean away. In only sixty days, Tom's due home, but will he make it alive? And how can a kid brother help a soldier stay safe? The only tool Steve has is the music they both love. This short story remembers the death of the Doors' Jim Morrison in 1971, but the aching fear for a loved one fighting on foreign soil is timeless.

Included as a bonus is the first chapter from MURDER, KEN KESEY, AND ME, Diana Deverell's comic mystery featuring another mind-blowing sixties icon, one who lived well past the age of twenty-seven.

This edition of "Heart Failure" is the uncut original. A condensed version was included by Danish publisher Alinea in their series about "the 27 Club," an online supplement to the English textbook A PIECE OF CAKE, 9.
