Can the devil haunt the living in places where violence and
death have left its mark? Two Air Force
Master Sergeants believe he can and will do what they can to stop him. Upon the Air Force’s arrival at the infamous
Jim Jones compound Jonestown in Guyana, none of the airmen were prepared for
the carnage spread across the jungle. It
is an image that none of them will forget.
Years later, the evil that permeated Jim Jones and controlled his
actions will take the lives of innocent military men and women, unless it can
be stopped.
While Mr. Joseph’s story is largely fictional, it questions
whether or not evil can continue to linger after a horrific act has taken place
and take on a life of its own. Can
ghosts, spirits, or the devil himself cling to certain objects, places, or even
military aircraft? If it can, who is
willing to have enough faith in God to stop them?
This story interested me not only because of the references
to Jonestown, but because I found the concept of evil being an eternal force
very interesting. Evil doesn’t die when
the villain is killed; it simply takes on a new shape and continues on its
mission to destroy the innocent. The
story grabbed my attention and made me afraid for our two heroes who were brave
enough to stand up to what they considered the devil. I applaud Mr. Joseph for exploring the
possibilities of what evil can do to our world once it has taken root in people. I gave this short story 5 stars and look
forward to reading more of Mr. Joseph’s short stories.
