A wild week in Chicago may have shaken things up a bit, but as she turns her key in her Madison, Wisconsin home on the eve of Hallowe'en, she knows that what happened with her ex was nothing more than a distraction, that this is where her life is. Except it's all gone. The furniture gone, the house stripped, her husband Danny, her daughters, all gone; no message; no note, nothing. Outside in the dark, searching for a sign, she steps in one: the eviscerated body of the family dog. By dawn next morning, her supposedly mortgage-free home has been foreclosed against, one of Danny's childhood friends lies dead in her backyard, and Clare is caught up in a nightmare that began with her husband on Hallowe'en night, 1976. A nightmare that reaches its terrifying climax thirty-five years later.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Hughes has created an effective puzzle, rife with misdirection and unreliable protagonists"-- "Publishers Weekly"<br><br>Cutting back and forth from Claire to Danny to a Madison police officer to an assassin who's been hired by a shadowy Mr. Big, Hughes sticks so close to each one that he manages to create a threatening, baffling world that feels both kaleidoscopic and claustrophobic-- "Kirkus Reviews"<br><br>Readers who appreciate family thrillers from such writers as Harlan Coben and Linwood Barclay will find much to enjoy here"-- "Booklist"<br>
