    About this ebook

    When people experience a life-shaking event, whether religious conversion, near death experiences, or other tumults of life, they often come out changed to the point where you wonder if they are the same person. Suppose, in at least some cases, they aren't the same person. Demonic possession has long been studied to either debunk or prove same. Those saying their new selves are higher spirits are treated with less by way of exorcism, but more by way of therapy...often forced.

    Two university students for a senior thesis are given one of the latter to study. When reports by professionals begin to fall short, they seek out the victim's sister. Through her help, both students are afforded a face to face meeting with the victim himself.

    David Howells

    Doctor of Chiropractic since 11/1984. Former Chief of Nuclear Medicine, Lutheran Medical Center, St. Louis, MO. Volunteer EMT, Hurley Fire and Rescue Squad, Hurley NY. Folk musician, volunteer soundman for the Hudson Valley Folk Guild. Kiwanis Club of Kingston. Society for Creative Anachronism fighter, archer, and chirurgeon. Greetings and welcome to my website. Thanks for stopping by. I welcome you to download VANESSA with my complements and see if you like the style. I'm told by readers the first two chapters are a slow acceleration (others say 'no problem') and then it takes off from there as a great page turner. Each of the four sequels had good reviews on first released a few years back, so I hope you'll try those as well. Time Snap and Hell Rise were more recent efforts I hope you'll like. The short stories have been a lot of fun to write, and are getting good response levels. Thank you all so very much! Long and merry life, best of health, David L Howells PS: I've done my best to filter out errors in the copy, but if you see one on any of the works, please notify me at twosword at earthlink dot net? I'd appreciate it (just include a three word sequence and which title, and I'll fix it with a search and correct). Happy reading!
