Pocketful of Rocks

Alyse died in his arms, and nobody cares that he's sorry.

Hitting rock bottom hurts, and when Peter finds himself there for the second time, he shatters. Family and friends disappear, politics and the court system conspire to cancel his future, and Peter himself isn't sure he wants to survive.

Over a period of months following the boat wreck, Peter learns that being sorry isn't nearly enough and some broken things can't be easily mended -- even him.

Maybe a pocketful of rocks is the answer to everybody's problems.
