In this gripping Taylor Jackson thriller, J.T. Ellison delivers a gruesome police procedural where evil hides behind masks, bloody rituals, and the darkest corners of human nature.

It’s Halloween night, and Lieutenant Taylor Jackson has just made her triumphant return to the Nashville Police Department. But her celebration is cut short when a teenager turns up dead, an occult symbol carved[JE1]  into his body. Before dawn, seven more follow in the same macabre fashion.

As panic grips the wealthy enclave of Green Hills, a determined Taylor and her forensics team race to uncover a ritualistic killer. The evidence leads deep into an underground Goth subculture prowled by teenage witches and self-styled vampires. In this dark demimonde, mystical fantasy and real violence blur . . . and all appearances can fatally deceive.

With help from her fiancé, FBI profiler John Baldwin, Taylor must separate myth from murder before fear claims more victims. By the investigation’s end, the relentless pursuit of justice will test every limit she knows.

All Hallows’ Eve is meant to be scary. This one might haunt her forever.

Praise

"Ellison's outstanding fifth Taylor Jackson thriller (after February 2010's The Cold Room) pits the homicide cop against a killer in league with the dark side. . . . The police procedural details never get in the way of the potent characterization and clever plotting, and Ellison systematically cranks up the intensity all the way to the riveting ending."
