Fic: Ghost (LoTR)

Title: Ghost
Author: Hope
Rating: G (nonslash)
Date completed: 23/01/03
A/N: I was reluctant to call this "Ghost" because I know [livejournal.com profile] caraloup has already written an amazing fic with that title . . . but I couldn't really see any other option!

The GHost is....Samwise?

I think this is beautifully sneaky--when I first read it,I thought Frodo was fairly young, and the Ghost would be his namesake. After a reread or two (and even checking the genealogical tables!), I am not thinking Frodo (married to Firiel)with children of his own is haunted by Samwise. A friend of mine gets pretty sarcastic at times about Sam leaving to follow Frodo, and this beautifully written piece certainly raises some questions about that issue.
