Sinopse

In "Tom Ossington's Ghost," Richard Marsh weaves a compelling narrative that intricately blends elements of supernatural mystery with rich psychological exploration. Set against the backdrop of Victorian London, the novel employs a unique epistolary style, utilizing letters and first-person accounts to construct a disorienting yet immersive reading experience. Marsh deftly examines themes of identity, the ephemeral nature of life, and the confrontation between the mundane and the uncanny, challenging societal norms and exploring the depths of human emotion within a distinctly Gothic framework. Richard Marsh, an author and journalist, was significantly influenced by his fascination with the occult and the burgeoning psychological discourse of his time. His own experiences, as well as the societal anxieties surrounding death, spirituality, and modernity in the late 19th century, informed his exploration of the boundaries between reality and the supernatural in "Tom Ossington's Ghost." Marsh's adept storytelling showcases his deep understanding of the human psyche and the complexities of existence, making him a crucial figure in Victorian literature. This novel is highly recommended for readers interested in Gothic literature, psychological thrillers, and those seeking a profound examination of life's mysteries. Marsh's skillful prose and vivid characterizations will captivate fans of the genre, inviting them to delve into a world where the ephemeral and the eternal entwine.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is a riveting book! I wanted to stay up to finish it, but my eyes said no. It's the second book in the series and I highly recommend reading the first one before this book. 
    Angela returns to Earth to search for and find the last two members of a group called the Ring. 
    Together, the Ring can access crucial knowledge that the world desperately needs. 
    Each member has unconsciously carried a piece of this knowledge over thousands of years. By reconnecting the pieces, they will help turn mankind’s negative, violent development on Earth into a positive, loving, and constructive progress. 
    If the Ring doesn’t reunite now, it is doubtful that they will ever succeed. 
    Angela only has forty-two days to find the last two members and convince them to go to In-Between with her. 
    During her forty-two days on Earth, Angela’s past, philosophy of life, and especially her sense of justice are challenged. 
    She must go beyond her limits, even when she sees her view of the world disintegrate. 
    The Ring is about standing firm and believing in something bigger than oneself. 
    It is about daring to live life to the fullest, looking death in the eye, letting go of the past, and having faith. 
    Through Angela’s journey, readers will come to see the world as they have never seen it before. 
    This is the second book in the addictive IN-BETWEEN series from author, Sagar Constantin .
