My Review:
What a great treat! I simply devoured this book when it was given to me!
I am the lover of the Friday the 13th series of books.
This one is a holiday special that I want to read every Christmas. My boss told me I should check out Black Christmas when I stream because it's the kind of story that this book reminded him of.
Just epic. From the start the horror is so well done.
The story takes you from the start to finish so fast. Impossible to put down. I even delayed watching Mayfair Witches to finish this book!!! Simply amazing! I love these books and want to read more of them!

Author Biography:
The supernatural had the allure of forbidden fruit ever since I was a boy, and my mother refused to allow me to watch creature features on late-night TV. She caved-in. (Well, not literally.)
As a child, fresh snow provided the opportunity to walk out onto neighbors' lawns halfway and make paw prints with my fingers as far as I could stretch. I would retrace the paw and boot prints, then fetch the neighbor kids and point out that someone turned into a werewolf on this lawn! (They were skeptical.)
I have pursued many interests over the years, but the supernatural has always called to me. You could say I was haunted. Finally, following the siren's call, I began writing the Eidola Project Series, about 19th-century ghost hunters who become ensnared in deadly investigations of the supernatural. There are three novels so far in the series: The Eidola Project, Moonlight Becomes You, and Totem of Terror. Each of them have won awards, and the entire Eidola Project Series just won first place in the horror division of the Paranormal Romance Guild's Reviewer's Choice Awards.
I also write stories for the Friday the 13th collection of weird and frightening tales. Witch Ever Way You Go was his first. It is set in 2015 Seattle and is about a murderous coven of modern witches. The Devil Sheds a Tear, The Devil's Dregs, Spoiled Milk, and Merry and Bright--A Very Krampus Christmas are sequels but can be read on their own. These stories are available from Amazon & Kindle Unlimited.
Ultimately, I hope my work gives you the creeps—and I mean that in the best way possible!
