Hill to Die On: A WIP Novel by Eloquent

[ image id: eight images in a square grid collage surround the title; a gravestone, blood-drenched hands, a snarling dog’s teeth, a magem david laid across a siddur prayer book, a cityscape at night, a decaying hallway, a silhouette on a dark street, and an autumn forest path. ]

A GRUESOME SMILE snaked across his face. “Isn’t it romantic?” he crooned. “How close to death we all are?” His fingertips dragged down his eyelids and cheeks, but the smile remained. “I don’t have a lot of time left, Rimon. Best use it wisely.”

RIMONexorcises ghosts for a living. At least, that’s the cool way of putting it. They’re more of a glorified ghost therapist.But it’s a relatively quiet job in the chaotic industry of spirit intervention, and they wouldn’t trade it for the world. Unfortunately, they don’t have much choice when their coworker returns from a hunt erratic and disturbed. Rimon is thrust headfirst into a dangerous mystery they want no part in, but they no longer have a choice. Do they have what it takes to lead their team into the eye of the storm, before it swallows Boston whole?
