Afterlife: A Ghost Story by Steve Yockey

casspro's review

5.0

It's a very overwhelming experience, reading "Afterlife"--and I mean that in the best way possible. Yockey presents the ocean both as an ancient elemental and natural god of sorts. Danielle and Connor are heartbreaking parents who are torn from their child. In their grief, they return to their beach home and a resulting hurricane causes them to seperate from each other. As they struggle to make peace, they interact with the ocean in all its base forms.

The best I've read from Yockey yet.
