(PRLeap.com) "The Ghost That Shakes Me Wakes Me", a new book by Allan Ashby, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.
A young man, Akers, travels the countryside looking for meaningful work. From town to town he ventures in pursuit of something greater. His prized pendant around his neck, a symbol of better things to come, Akers longs to have the funds to attend the most renowned university in the country, yet he is stifled by a spirit. One which haunts him relentlessly, urging him to stop his pursuit; that it is worthless to continue.
A philosophical tale, The Ghost That Shakes Me Wakes Me asks why we choose to better ourselves with education, with a powerful lesson in learning to accomplish goals on your own, perhaps with the aid of a mentor.
