Boundless

by Dorien Grey
Shortly after purchasing a building to be his next restoration project, Elliott Smith learns that, in addition to its other charms, it comes with the spirit of one Aaron Stiles, a former tenant who had died there of a heart attack four years before. Aaron shows his presence by knocking on the doors of all the apartments at any time of day or night. A resident who knew Aaron while he was alive explains he is looking for his partner, Bill Somers, who left for work one day and never returned.Curious to learn more of Aaron’s story, Elliott discovers, with the help of his spectral friend John, that Bill, for whom Aaron is still waiting, died under mysterious circumstances, probably on the day he disappeared.Knowing that Aaron will not leave the building until he knows exactly what happened to Bill and why, Elliott sets off to solve the mystery. In the process, and much against his better judgment, he confesses to his lover Steve that he’s trying to solve a mystery for a ghost. After all, it was Steve who alerted him to the building in the first place, and whose painting of it clearly shows the image of a man gazing through an upstairs window.
