    About this ebook

    In this life-affirming book, author David Shaw explores ten major themes that affect us all – and offers a unique way to engage with them.

    Whether it’s fear or forgiveness, credence or clarity, materialism or acceptance, Shaw gives us the benefit of ten spiritual authors who pen their intriguing and stimulating words through him as modern parables.

    In doing so they offer us a steadying rudder in the choppy, often violent, sea of life’s cruelties and uncertainties.

    Presenting an engaging and fascinating blend of fiction and nonfiction, Ghost Writers presents ina non-stuffy style information whose light-hearted humour belies its powerful emotional punch.

    So sit back, relax and share David’s absorbing, gripping and spellbinding journey of a lifetime – and beyond.
