Desire (ePub)

Some investigators believe that a spirit remains after death to complete a burning desire--even if that desire is murder.

When Rachel Law's paranormal investigation team picks up the EVP of a young girl crying and begging for help, she is drawn deep into a mystery that has spanned twenty-years.

In the seemingly peaceful farmland of rural Missouri where trucks out number people, and there are more barns than houses, you wouldn't expect a terror to linger over the countryside like a persistent mist-you would be dead-wrong.

The small community of Franklin Furnace has never gotten rid of the Chocolate Man, an evil man who used chocolate candy to lure young girls to his grasp. Homer Elwood, called The Chocolate Man by the media, was captured once, tried, and convicted. But he escaped during a blizzard and was presumed to have died. But young girls keep disappearing and the police have not been able to find a single clue.

Rachel Law knew all about desire and how some ghosts remained behind to carry out one more task. Still, the possibility that the abductor was a murderous ghost chilled her to the quick. She knew that she would do all she could to end the horror.

There were so many unknowns with this investigation, so she started with a list of things she was sure of:

First, Homer Ellwood, the Chocolate Man, had abducted and killed the first little girl.

Second, Homer was tried, found guilty, and imprisoned. He escaped and has remained at large for the past twenty-years, and might be dead.

Third, eleven little girls are now missing from her community of Franklin Furnace.

Fourth, she was going to stop him.
