Tallis' Third Tune
by Ellen L. Ekstrom
Alice Martin discovers herself in a quaint English shop. Iconic historical figures appear no sooner than she thinks of them; they come and go, offering advice. She learns she can change definitive moments in her life, to correct mistakes she made in the two most important relationships in her life: her first love, Quinn Radcliffe, a sensitive classical musician destined for the concert halls of the world; and Donovan Trist, a charming archaeologist with New England blue-blood and expensive scotch in his veins. Each has a hold on Alice that she doesn't want to lose - but she must make a decision. Throughout her journey, Alice is linked to one man and love by a melody; the luminous and evocative Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis. As she moves towards finding happiness, Alice knows one thing is for certain - this is not a trip to Wonderland, but deep into her heart and soul.
