Regret is only the Beginning; Horror is the Transformation; Tragedy is the Offspring.
After seeing Wayland off to the afterlife, Joey’s left grieving over the reality that her father and best friend are gone. She can’t let it stop her though. She’s got a job to do for Charon, her regular life to return to, and the complications brought on by having Jag carry her heart. She can’t even focus on that when she discovers running from her problems doesn’t actually get rid of them.
Stalked by the ghosts of her Baltimore, Joey can’t get away from her mistakes. Meanwhile, now that the badges can see her again, she’s got a couple of things to explain, like jumping out the window at the station and why there was blood in her boyfriend’s apartment. Telling them ghosts are real isn’t enough; she has to prove it. Ralph seems like a good option as the guy who makes deals with death, but when she shows up at his bar, he’s missing too. Time is running out on her credibility and with every second that passes, she risks sinking Jag’s life for holding onto him for so long, the blood came off her hands and got all over him.
About the author
Ian Kirkpatrick is an author of speculative fiction, satire, and literary fiction with elements of scifi, horror, and comedy. Her credentials are these: an MFA in Creative Writing, a Masters in Forensic Psychology, and a BA in Theater. She’s particularly obsessed with human nature, rationale, morality, good and evil, absurdity, and the supernatural bend you can find between mythology and reality, so her fiction will often contain these elements. She particularly enjoys using exaggeration, contrast, and incongruity to paint the worlds she creates. While she writes across genres, these elements will often still be found in her works along with innocent characters, psychopathic characters, or a combination of the two.More ebooks from the same author(s) / Editor
