Thanks for reading my story, Mike. Yeah, it did feel a little disjointed at times. In the end I think it's up to the readers to decide for themselves what's up with the girl's ghost. As for me, I see it this way. It really was an informant that told Standler where Diesel's meth lab was. He's gone insane and is hallucinating the entire ghost thing. I mention him dropping out of college to start a family only to have his wife give birth to a stillborn and never to conceive again. He wants a family, a child, but is denied it. This, coupled with extreme alcoholism and finding the naked corpse of that little girl so savagely abandoned in a gutter has caused him to lose his sanity and now he is on a killing spree.
