Hugh hasn’t seen his Simmercy relatives for several years due to an inappropriate attraction to the son, Charles, who is just a few years younger than he is. When he arrives at their opulent country hall, he’s unhappy to discover that he still feels the same way about Charles as he did years earlier. The appearance of a ghost bearing a tale of a scandalous and tragic event from the family’s past distracts him somewhat, especially as he is the only one who can see the man. Will the search for the means to help the ghost bring Hugh and Charles closer together?

“Death’s Desire” is a tale that is both sad, due to the horrific events that led to the ghost’s existence, and hopeful. Hugh and Charles’ search for the means to free the ghost is interesting, and their romance is sweet. Although there is never any real doubt about the outcome, I enjoyed “Death’s Desire” quite a bit.
