Resumen del Editor

Two years ago, a man broke into James Blakely’s apartment and shot him in his sleep, killing him instantly.

Dead and confused, James discovered he had a choice: move on into the afterlife or stay behind. Knowing his past sins would lead him straight to the fires of Hell, James chose to haunt his old apartment building instead.

Now, James spends his days visiting his daughter and ex-wife, welcoming new neighbors, and conversing with those who can see the dead. It’s a simple, peaceful existence, but with each passing day, his memories of his former life—and even his own identity—begin to fade.

As he faces the prospect of slipping into oblivion, James sets out to save his eternal soul. With the help of his daughter and a world-class medium, his journey toward peace and forgiveness is fraught with challenges, especially for a spirit who still longs to be a father and fears he’s destined for Hell as punishment for sins he can’t remember.

As James uncovers the devastating secret that binds his soul to earth, he learns that even in death, life has a few surprises.

The Body Departed is a standalone supernatural mystery novel, perfect for fans of Anne Rice, Freida McFadden, and Dean Koontz.

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING:

★★★★★ “I found this book to be fast-moving, the main character, James, multifaceted. You learn about his life, the way he loved his daughter, tried to be a good husband, a good man, but realized he was flawed. Now in death he is trying to be a better person so he might have an opportunity at a second chance at Heaven. He has help from a psychic friend and ends up befriending the spirit of a lost little boy. Yes, the ending is truly touching.” —Amazon review

★★★★★ “I am a HUGE fan of J.R. Rain. Have read a lot of his books, and they are all excellent. But The Body Departed did something different. It captured my heart and soul.” —Amazon review

★★★★★ “If I had to just sum this book up with one sentence then I’d say this book was beautiful. It’s extremely thought provoking and imaginative and will make you think. Every action has a consequence and sometimes those consequences last with us even long after death. I think that even if only one person could learn something from reading this book then the Earth will be a much better place. The storyline was fantastic and I don’t really want to give anything away so if you enjoy a good ghost story along with the power of compassion and forgiveness then do yourself a favor and read The Body Departed.” —Amazon review

★★★★★ “J.R. Rain paints a pretty heartwarming yet bittersweet tale of redemption, forgiveness and salvation. As James navigates the supernatural world seeking the truth, he encounters a host of characters that are endearing, believable and poignant in their own way. Regardless of what you believe in, Rain creates an environment that the reader is motivated to travel with James as he unravels the truth. When revealed, you realize that it was never about who killed James or why, but actually it was about James learning to forgive himself, because God already had.” —Amazon review

★★★★★ “I had never heard of J.R. Rain before reading this book, but the synopsis of The Body Departed intrigued me so much that I downloaded it via the Kindle, and I was not disappointed. It was a very fast, short read that kept me in the deliciously in the dark and turning pages. Since it is written from James's point of view, the main character, we only know and see what he knows and sees. The way in which Rain wrote this book is very effective in keeping the mystery alive and the reader guessing.” —Amazon review
