Things of the Flesh

Ghosts of the Dead Ghosts of the Living A woman on the run from an abusive marriage stumbles over gravestones for the living and renews her journey to reclaiming her lost life. A serial killer prowls the night-dark highways, collecting souls of the living and the dead. A misjudgement in cultural etiquette nearly spells doom for a young bride at the hands of her angry mother-in-law. A portal between life and death disguised as a bathroom mirror leads an unhappy wife on a new journey. A family history that foretells the future is practically writing itself. A drifter on the run from events he can't quite remember takes questionable refuge with a modern-day Dorian Gray. In this collection of six ghostly tales, award-winning author Jennifer Rachel Baumer takes a journey into unnamed and unknown cities and the surreal darkness within them.
