Book blurb provided by author
Matthew Stone doesn't believe in ghosts … until he meets
one. He owns a successful business in Lake Havasu, Arizona, home to the famed
London Bridge that was brought over stone by stone and rebuilt over the
Colorado River. He has a gorgeous girlfriend, a doting mother, and more money
than he needs, but no time for stories about the ghosts who were transplanted
from England with the famed bridge. When a chance encounter with a female ghost
leads to unexpected friendship, Matt and the ghost are forced to rely on each
other as they confront the pasts that haunt them.
****
This is that rare ghost
story that avoids all the pratfalls and clichés of the usual spectral and paranormal
tale. Melissa Bowersock has intertwined two stories seamlessly - one a modern
tale of a man taking responsibility for himself amid the shades of his own
past, and the other the story of a young woman from a bygone era looking for
release and redemption. You will keep turning the pages on this finely-crafted
tale! —Rich Meyer, author
Excerpt
The small hairs on the
back of his neck stood up, as if light fingers hovered just above them.
Instantly alert, he forced himself to stand still even though he would have liked
to jerk upright and look about the bridge. Controlling even his quick, shallow
breathing, he kept his head still but focused on the periphery of his sight. He
felt more than saw it, but thought there was something standing to his right.
Something dark. Slowly, slowly, he turned his head.
That shape. Smaller,
shorter than the woman who had just passed, this person was almost petite, or
at least he thought she would be under the heavy black clothes. She
stood—floated—just scant feet away, hovering near the balustrade with a tension
that suggested to Matt she would vanish at the slightest move. At the same
moment that he realized he could actually see the bridge behind her—see through her—he also noticed the almost
wild light in her eyes. Eyes that were looking directly at him.
