Conveniently located directly across from the city cemetery, Ramsey Funeral Home has ghosts coming and going.The century-old mansion has been the last stop for numerous town residents, and some just don’t want to leave. In fact, many have Risen. But all the spirits who visit are not friendly. One is the ghost of a long-dead child killer and cannibal. The murderer has taken over the soul of Karl Ramsey, the mysterious mortician who runs Ramsey Funeral Home.This creepy house has always been the subject of conjecture, but now people are beginning to wonder if the disappearance of several people could be related to the funeral home.Adam Ramsey, Karl’s nephew and heir to the family estate through his grandfather, returns to his hometown, only to relive ghostly childhood memories. He seeks to discover if the terrible rumors about his uncle are true. Adam teams up with a woman whose eight-year-old daughter has disappeared to find out exactly what is happening.Nothing, however, can prepare them for what they will discover.David Rhodes lives in Marion, Iowa. Being a horror novelist and living right next door to the cemetery obviously gave me some good ideas about a book. The rest just fell together on its own, and I just followed along. After all, the characters are writing the book, saying what they say, doing what they do. Publisher’s website: http: //www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/Risen.html
