Ash and Bone by Lisa von Biela started out good but then, to me, went off on tangents.  While a novel can do this and get away with it a novella cannot.  I counted three different story lines within its short pages.  Why introduce the hotel owner in such detail then barely mention her when the "ghost story" kicks in.  Then the haunted hotel room?  Not really.  The sawmill owner and the big city reporter, all wrapped up too nicely for me.  This author writes interesting, good reads, but I wasnt impressed with this novella.
