My Name Is Mary — S.A. Ison

Is there really any such thing as reincarnation? Is there an afterlife? Are souls recycled, taking memories and talents with them to the next life? How do some people have abilities that were never taught? Cory Montenegro's life is filled with anxieties and nightmares, but he doesn't know why. When he looks in the mirror, he sees a frightened young man, unable to live his life with any kind of joy. After years of therapy, Cory is about to give up until he undergoes hypnotherapy. This is not Cory's first rodeo, it would seem. Cory has just found out that he has lived other lives, full lives in other countries and in older times. What secrets lay locked deep in Cory's mind? Mary was born into pre-Civil War slavery. Under hypnotherapy, Cory experiences his life through the eyes of Mary. Her life is a struggle in a time where human life was bought and sold. Who is Mary and why is her story so important to Cory? How can Mary's triumphs and tragedies help Cory?
