About This Book
When a mysterious stranger crashes a Halloween performance at a historic New York theater—warning that his unsolved murder will have deadly consequences—the Krewe of Hunters faces a case that blurs the line between theatrical drama and genuine danger. Dakota McCoy and Brodie McFadden must untangle decades-old secrets while a killer remains very much active in the present. The stakes are immediate, the atmosphere is richly Gothic, and the holiday setting gives the whole investigation an eerie, festive urgency that makes it nearly impossible to put down.
At just under 150 pages, this is Graham at her most focused—tight plotting, sharp dialogue, and her signature blend of the paranormal and the procedural working in close harmony. The compact format suits the novella form beautifully, delivering atmosphere and momentum without a wasted scene. Longtime fans of the Krewe of Hunters series will appreciate how naturally the world expands here, while newcomers will find the story self-contained enough to stand on its own. It reads the way a good campfire story feels: quick, immersive, and just unsettling enough to linger.
