When Crickets Cry — 

This story is about hearts--physical and emotional hearts--and about the mending/healing of both.  When reviewing this book at my book club meeting, some of the book club members were turned off by the medical jargon.  However, being a former Emergency Medical Technician, I was intrigued with it.  This is a heart-warming story of a successful cardiac surgeon who began his career in order to help care for his childhood sweetheart, who later became his wife.  After she died of her heart ailments, he became a recluse until he was faced with the need to use his cardiac skills to save the life of a young girl he grew fond of after meeting her quite by "accident."   She, and the aunt who was caring for this orphaned niece, were instrumental in the reviving of the doctor's emotional heart.
