Publisher's Synopsis
Old Blue Eyes, Madonna, Chewbacca and Frankenstein's Monster go trick-or-treating in the upmarket part of town. They find a lavish three-storey house lying empty, the keys left in the lock. They should post them through the letterbox, they should hand them in to a neighbour, they should leave them under the doormat. But they don't. It is Hallowe'en after all. The time, if any, to do the wrong thing... David and Carol Tempest involve their two young children in a spontaneous burglary with consequences farther reaching and more severe than either of them can imagine. Teenage loner, Cameron, and his infant sister, Alesha, take to the road in their parents' car, heading anywhere Cameron's daydreams and nightmares lead them. Police Constable Warwick fails to keep his breakfast down when he finds a pair of mutilated corpses. Taken under the wing of a zealous senior detective, he has stumbled upon a case where it isn't only the suspects who have secrets.
