A tragic death. A haunting past. A love that transcends lifetimes.
Hartman Meyer seems like any other teenager—until a violent encounter on a remote lagoon changes everything. What begins as a rivalry spirals into something Hartman cannot undo and he struggles with a dark shadow of personal doubt.
As Hartman progresses into university, so does the darkness growing inside of him—nightmares, tormented visions, and a presence that relentlessly stalks him from beyond the grave.
In university, his psychologist girlfriend encourages him to seek help from her former colleague—Dr. Dorothy Hallows—who soon realizes that Hartman's mental condition does not respond to conventional treatments.
They boldly agree to experiment with a little-understood strategy of hypnotic age-regression. Dr. Hallows brings Hartman face to face with lives lived in the distant past; powerful relationships that beg resolution in Hartman's current earthly manifestation.
From the wilderness of 19th century Canada to the primal depths of prehistory, Rising from the Ashes is a chilling psychological thriller of reincarnation, redemption, and the enduring power of love to heal the oldest wounds.
