Masterton at its best!

I have read several Masterton the question which I preferred, the answer is The Demon Souls. As proof, I read 2 times in 6 years apart.
Near Salem on the East Coast of the United States, Trenton John lost his wife pregnant with their first child in a car accident just over a month later, here she appears to him. And we learn that she is not the only ghost to appear to his living relatives.
These events take an alarming turn, these apparitions being aggressive or lethal and it is suspected that they are linked to demonic cargo of David Dark, Salem ship sank in the bay in 1690, which has control over the dead.
A history of demons and undead in the end.
The first-person narrative and perfect sequence are that it is hard to win.
