Jekyll Island: a Paranormal Mystery Rebecca Patrick-howard

Publisher Marketing: "Jekyll Island is full of ghosts and their need for Taryn is strong..." Jekyll Island is known for its fascinating history, as well as its ghosts, but now the two are about to take Taryn on a wild ride she'll never forget! Jekyll Island: celebrated for its beautiful historic hotel, gorgeous beaches, alligators, wild beauty, intriguing history that stretches back nearly 5 centuries, and its spirits... When Taryn's hired to paint two of the hotel's historic cottages she's excited at the chance to spend the summer on one of the Atlantic's most stunning islands. After all, she hasn't had a vacation in years. There's a formidable presence, however, that stalks the artist and history buff and grasps her within its ominous shadows. The past has never been more alive. It clings to her, taunts her, and threatens her sanity and very life. More than 100 years ago a fire consumed most of the hotel that was once built to be a playground for some of the country's richest men and women. The culprit was hanged for his crime, as well as for the murder of his young wife Rachel whose death the fire was meant to cover. Is it Rachel's ghost back for vengeance, or help, or is it something more sinister that clings to the island and claws its way into Taryn's camera and dreams? One thing is for sure-if she makes it out of THIS place alive, Taryn will never be the same!
