Somatic by Douglas V. Gibbs
What happens when all of your stupid mistakes come back to haunt you later in life? Literally.
Brooke Kittrick believes political conspiracies guide everything. Undeniable proof stops for lunch at a diner she frequents. Learning the truth could save his life, or end hers.
Salem Wiccar: "Your past, once it discovers how much you have mistreated it, will always find a way to come back and haunt you. It's like a ghost in the hall. First the lights of recognition begin to flicker. Then the chains of guilt rattle. After that, the sheer fright of realizing the truth is often enough to kill a man. Sometimes, when many apparitions exist, a man must run from his past, for if it catches up to him, surely the spirits of such a tormented history will not simply deal the mercy of death, but will haunt a man until death becomes his only solace."
