Bill Donnelly is the clinical director of the Children's Resource Center in Bowling Green. It's a multi-service facility for children and adolescents. When Doug was grieving over the suicide of his girlfriend Dawn in 1987, Donnelly counseled Doug Merrill, who believed that he was responsible for her death. When a cluster of suicides began at the high school again 17 years later, their paths crossed again. Only this time, Doug was on the staff at the school.
