Julie decides a weekend getaway will be good for her and her daughter Amy. Amy has been suspended from school and is a troubled child. Two years ago she was in a wreck that killed her dad and Julie's husband. She hasn't talked since then. If dealing with all that wasn't enough Julie may be losing her job and her boyfriend Garrett is moving for his job. The weekend seems to be off to a good start Amy has an imaginary playmate and seems to be happy. What Julie doesn't realize is the inn is haunting and Amy's imaginary friend is actually a ghost named Mercy. She isn't the only ghost around either Mercy's mom Eliza is around and she has plans for Julie and Amy. It is up to Garrett to figure out the old mystery and save them.This is a short story I really enjoyed. It has a spooky feel that sends shivers up your spine. While it is a short story it still all the great qualities a long book has. You get to know the characters, what happened to them in the past, what s going on now and you get a wonderful ending. Amy has been through so much and she still continues to go through stuff. She just doesn't fit in with others. Julie is a great mom. She has done so much to help and support Amy on her own. Her child is very important to her. Garrett I love him. He comes back to surprise the girls and helps them. My favorite thing with him is he actually talks and plays games with Amy. He doesn't treat her different or try to use her to get close to her mom. He is there and cares for her. The mystery of these ghost is a gruesome one that will haunt you. I really liked the whole story and would recommend to anyone wanting a great short haunting read.
