Devil's Night, Paperback/Gary Reilly

In Devil's Night , Denver cab driver, Brendan Murphy, a.k.a. "Murph," drops off four costumed teens at a Halloween-themed haunted house party. Later, worried about whether the kids made it home safely, he is pulled into the vortex of an eerie con game. He endures a hellish week of seances, arson and a spooky graveyard chase. Murph has only himself to blame for his troubles. He's violated his most cherished principle: Never, under any circumstances, get involved in the personal lives of your fares.
