"Some paths are forbidden for a reason..."
The summer of 1984 was supposed to be about bike rides, lazy afternoons, and adventures with my best friends. But when we discovered Washington, a homeless war veteran living along the Greenway Trail, everything changed. The trail had always been off-limits. My parents warned me about the ghost stories, the eerie cries in the night, and the two kids who vanished without a trace. But when my great-grandfather shared a family secret about a hidden treasure mystery buried deep in the woods, curiosity got the best of us.
"We thought we were searching for treasure. We found something much greater."
What started as a daring coming-of-age adventure quickly became a test of faith, courage, and friendship. Washington was a man living in the shadows with his own story of loss and faith. The Greenway Trail held paranormal encounters, supernatural suspense, and mysteries that made us question what we thought we knew. Was it really haunted? Or was something even more terrifying lurking in the shadows?
"Faith doesn't always take us where we expect... but it always takes us where we need to be."
More than just a small-town mystery, The Greenway Trail is a Christian fiction novel that blends mystery & suspense, adventure stories, and inspirational stories into an unforgettable journey. It explores themes of forgiveness, redemption, and the power of belief, reminding us that even in life's darkest moments, faith and friendship can light the way. If you love young adult fiction, ghost & horror short stories, and paranormal thrillers, this book is for you.
