Marc Miller

The Ozark Hills Academy, a rustic boarding school, sits atop a beautiful hill in the back country of Northwest Arkansas and serves the region's disadvantaged 13 to 19 year old boys and girls. The area had one been owned by the long dead Charlie Chance, a known hater of children and progress. During each Devil's Darkness (the convergence of the dark of the mood and a strong, warm, southerly breeze) the Ghost of old Charlie selects a student and then sucks the soul from his being, leaving him dead and bereft of an afterlife. Mark Miller, hoping to write Charlie's story, arrives to investigate. The Ghost appears and raises havoc in an apparent attempt to get the writer to leave. It becomes a 'good ghost/bad ghost' quandary for Marc and the several young people who work alongside the writer to bring the matter to a safe conclusion. Danger, intrigue, and suspense abound.
