Bestselling author Linn Laurent has been grappling with writer's block to the extent she imagines it as a distinct entity that crawls into bed after her some nights-with its sour, rotting breath. She's tried remedy after remedy to get rid of the dratted thing, and her latest attempt is a retreat to Green Cabin in the mountains of West Virginia. Maybe there she can finally make progress on her latest novel. Then she starts seeing and hearing a boy and girl. They claim they're ghosts. Linn claims nonsense. She thinks a tumor or something like that is messing with her brain, but the evidence for ghosts turns out too strong to ignore. The children, Corrine and Christian, beg Linn to make contact with their parents and even bring them to the cabin if possible. Joely Estes is sixty years old and has managed to move on the best she could since the deaths of her children twenty-three years ago. When her ex-husband, Orson, and author Linn Laurent show up at Joely's office, they spin a tale that is too ridiculous to be true. Or is it? Joely reluctantly goes to Green Cabin with Linn and Orson. The two women develop a bond that may go beyond friendship, but just when they think their world is back to normal, everything changes. This short novel is about 42,000 words.
