Ferry of Ghosts

By: Robert Gass

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

On a cold, working ferry somewhere between here and forgetting, two men find themselves trapped by more than steel and water. Sam stayed behind. Luis left. Now they share a bunkroom, a smoke, and a silence full of flame. Years ago, something burned. Not everything made it out.
This is a story told in what isn’t said. One chapter at a time. Like pressure building below deck.
Ferry of Ghosts is a spare, haunting novella in the tradition of Hemingway—where clipped dialogue, tense silences, and unresolved history do more damage than fire ever could. Each scene is a dock cleat under strain. Each line, a knot that won’t come undone.
