Danielle Steel creates a little different story in THE GHOST. The setting is New England at Christmas. A sudden snowstorm strands an architect in a small town bed and breakfast. The elderly owner is a colorful character who just happens to own a haunted lakeside chateau in the deep woods. There is a real ghost in this tale and I enjoyed the parallel stories that the author weaves. Past and present is brilliantly joined in a fascinating tale of healing and courage. Not the usual stuff here. I fell in love with the ghost and the chateau. Of course, there is a romance. While the architect is doing a little research on the resident ghost he enlists the assistance of the local librarian who, unfortunately has her own baggage to discard before any sparks can fly. Great story. You will enjoy this one.
