    Summary

    What becomes of life when everything you know is upended?

    But what if everything you know is hardly worth clinging onto?

    John MacTavish inherits a farmhouse in a dead-end village out of the city and returns to it out of obligation more than hope. Quiet, rundown, and half-forgotten, it seems like the right place to disappear into while he 'grieves,' away from prying eyes and pitying shoulder-claps. But he’s seen something he shouldn’t have. And someone’s been sent to fix it.

    The Ghost is a man who does what he’s told. Efficient, careful, and long past believing in anything else, he’s not meant to think twice. So it rattles him, when the job goes south.

    It doesn't take long to find that it's easy to run, when you never loved what you're leaving behind. And easier still, when you've got someone to run with.
