A dilapidated house
with an evil secret in the basement. An auto-wrecking yard with the
devious, rusted remains of a murderer's getaway car. An unsolved bank
robbery with hundreds of thousands of dollars never found. A detective
trying to solve an age old murder before his ticker runs out. A slow,
agonizing death for an unfortunate victim and his soul reaching from
beyond... "Murder Behind The Closet Door" is a murder murder mystery
ghost story that keeps you engaged and guessing from the first
paragraph. Creepy, riveting, this mystery-ghost story reveals another
existence, one just beyond our own, where the occult and the paranormal
meet reality and everyday people find themselves swept into very
extraordinary circumstances. The story is set in Ocean City and
Wildwood, NJ during the late 1970s (with flashbacks to the '30s &
'50s), and centers around a young woman who begins her career marketing
an amusement pier on the world-famous Wildwood Boardwalk on the Jersey
Shore. Just as Heather's adult life really begins to blossom, her
torment begins. Not long after moving into a 70 year-old rooming house,
Heather's mundane life takes an uncontrolled turn toward insanity.
Although she refuses to acknowledge her ghost, a mysterious entity
begins to taunt her, an entity impetuously determined to contact her
through her bedroom closet. At first these mild encounters are merely
disturbing.... Aspirations of a life of quaint mediocrity vanish as she
and her friends try to discover the motives of her tormentor, finding
that the truths in which she believed her entire life had been nothing
but an elaborate veneer. As Heather falls deeper into the mystery, she
finds the physical world around her is much stranger - and more
terrifying - than she could ever have imagined.
