Phantom of Time, Ellen Gould-Harmon [the kiss of deception read online .txt] 📗

Phantom of Time is a gripping historic novel about an antagonist who has power to bring before men the appearance of their departed friends. The counterfeit is perfect; the familiar look, the words, the tone, are reproduced with marvelous distinctness. Many are comforted with the assurance that their loved ones are enjoying the bliss of heaven, and without suspicion of danger, they give ear “to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils.”  The pretended visitants from the world of spirits sometimes utter cautions and warnings which prove to be correct. But is this really true? The Phantom of Time takes the reader centuries in the past literally digging in the graves for the answers.
