Fifty years is a long time to wait for someone you love.
When a desperate ghost appears in the abandoned halls of St. John’s Hospital, maintenance worker Mike Johnston wants no part of her plea—until she tells him exactly where to find the necklace she lost decades ago, hidden beneath the carpet of an old service elevator. Her final request is simple: take it to Alan Cross.
Mike is stunned to find that Alan Cross is not only alive, but very much flesh and blood—and the former teacher he never hoped to see again. But when Alan sees the green sea-glass beads, he invites Mike inside and begins to tell the story of Mae Swan.
In the summer of 1967, Mae was a beloved theater actress and socialite, and far beyond Alan’s reach—until she wasn’t. Fifty years later, her death is still a mystery. And she is still waiting.
The past is not finished with them yet.
" ... a fantastic choice for anyone who enjoys haunting love stories or small-town mysteries with plenty of emotion."
