The Melissa ring

About this book

After a mysterious, five-year road trip, Paul Gray has returned to his father's hometown of River City, Wabash, specifically, an area of the city referred to by locals as The Forrest. Over time, the city has deteriorated into an urban wasteland due in part to the exploitive business practices of Paul's wicked great-grandfather, Silas Gray. However, Silas has died; and Paul has inherited his vast fortune. Will Paul use the money to reverse the damage and restore the city to its former glory? Or will he fall prey to the same sins of pride, lust, and greed which destroyed his ancestor? Furthermore, what is the peculiar, gold signet ring given to Paul by his cousin? It seems to have its own agenda. At the oddest times, it glows, and strange events soon follow.
