Ghost Story


I read Spirit Lost by Nancy Thayer, a ghost story that takes place on Nantucket. Nantucket is Nancy Thayer's hometown and she places many of her novels here in familiar territory. This ghost story isn't based on fact, but I would guess that Nantucket would have its share of ghost stories and haunted houses. The story was fast-paced, with suspense. Characters are interesting and very believable. I especially liked to read about a couple who were committed to their marriage and to the growth of each partner. This is their story of how they take a risk, putting everything out there, for the sake of a dream life, choosing art above material wealth, testing their love and their courage.
