\"As Maru stood gripping the tall, iron fence in the field leading to the forest, she thought of the past again...The memories remained etched in her brain. She groaned softly, irritated.\" Once you\'re haunted, your life will never be the same. The following is a collection of short stories featuring oddballs, including a family man with a penchant for his childhood toys, a mysterious man-but is he really?-whose regular walks become more stressful, a devoted student librarian trying to maintain the sanctity of her cherished place, and a young woman willing to put up with-almost-anything to get her business off the ground. What the characters find out is that anything can haunt you. Tensions rise. Boundaries are pushed. Relationships will be tested. Can the characters reclaim their lives without losing their sanity in the process? These whimsical tales bring the laughs, embrace the weird, raise eyebrows, and hopefully tug at your heart.
