Two Ghost Stories by James Hume Nisbet

I got a rejection from an agent I didn’t remember querying and that was weird, so that’s why I’ve decided to take a break from the querying process and undergo a new revision, possibly incorporating some of the constructive feedback I got from a couple of tailored rejections.

To the best of my knowledge, the text has never been digitised before.
