I was looking for a short story to stimulate my reading after a hectic, long weekend.  This looked just perfect ... and it is!  I'm so excited about this story that I plan on reading more of author Carmen DeSousa's works.  In this 'single,' Detective Mark Waters has enjoyed his meal at a restaurant, "The Depot" which is a converted old train station.  Over the years it had many businesses and soon became known as being haunted, even being featured on the TV show "American Haunts."  On another late evening, he and his partner are called to a scene at the railroad tracks near The Depot.  A man's mangled body, Devin Burke, had been found on the railroad tracks, his car parked at The Depot.  Mark is assigned to fully investigate Devin's death, even though it may have been a suicide.  The bartender on duty that night is Ashlyn Allan, who had been dating Devin.  As she checks her cell phone, she listens to Detective Waters message.  He wishes to meet with her to ask questions.  She feels her world and future are falling apart.  Did she kill him?  This story is spellbinding, I couldn't put it down.  It's well written, the plot development outstanding, and the storyline potent and gripping.  Take a few minutes, lay back on your nighttime pillow and enjoy this thrill ride!
