Think Sleepy Hollow meets nostalgic 00s slasher vibes but make it sexy with a modern day gothic strip club & revenge plot that will make you scream...

Ah, Halloween…what a delightfully wicked time of year.

But for some people, like Blair Van Tassel, it comes with a haunting reminder of the past she is trying to put behind her.

And this Halloween, it marks the 15th anniversary of when she set up her Instant Messenger friend: Boogeyman_Of_Haddonfield_31to take the fall for a crime she committed.

She thought her plan was fool proof. Lure him to the scene of the crime just in time for him to leave fingerprints on the weapon, leading the murderous trail that she started to him.

But that’s the thing with the internet.

Do you ever really know who is on the other side of the screen?

Can you even fathom what domino effect can begin by simply screwing with the wrong person?

These are things Blair never considered.

She thought she set up Boogeyman_Of_Haddonfield_31 but what she really started was a war with Maddox Crane.

The mad man of Sleepy Hollow. Who has an insatiable taste for blood.

And in a town that thrives on a good fright, Blair better hope that her screams are heard and aren’t buried within the landscape of Halloween night.

That is, if she even survives it.

The Trick is intended for listeners 18+. For a full list of CW please see the beginning of the book or the authors website.

Definitely felt the 00s slasher vibe and Maddox was perfectly unhinged. I loved that Blair matched his crazy as well. Too often we got those weak naïve FMCs and they drive me nuts almost every single time. Blair said FUCK THAT and did whatever she wanted whenever she wanted.

Tommy Aguilar did an amazing job as a psychopath and I look forward to listening to more of his work!

Also unrelated but... best place to find a high quality Michael Myers mask? Asking for a friend...

Duet Narration - Both MCs TOTALLY unhinged!

3 / 5 stars

This book has an interesting plot twist and a very unique and original plot line. I do think there were parts of it that were a little repetitive and I did contemplate DNFing it once because it got slow in the middle, but the premise and the suspense was so good that I held on for the ride. I loved the ending, and the beginning was absolutely thrilling.

great plot twist, great intro

Maddox is what every unhinged MMC wants to be… and I was here for every single moment of it. Blair had me screaming with her delightful sass and banter with Maddox. And that audiobook performance took this to a whole different level… because boy did their voices deliver on a totally orgasmic experience. This was my first by both Daphne Fields and Tommy Aguilar but it absolutely wont be my last.

Narration style: duet
