Night Fall

Night Fall series.
Is it a bad case of acne or is Nick's burning skin an act of demon possession linked to a nearby well? Nick isn't the first person this has happened to, but he's determined to solve the mystery before ending up dead like the others before him. A breezy hundred-page read for supernatural horror fans who might balk at more substantial books.

YA
Night Fall series.
During a power outage in Dani's town, twenty-seven cryogenically frozen prisoners thaw and mysteriously disappear. They--and Dani's best friend, Jake--are in an alternate reality created by a cult leader, a world Dani has to enter to rescue Jake. The premise is too complex for such a short book, but reluctant readers may enjoy the high-interest, often gruesome plot.

YA
Night Fall series.
Luke's home life, already strained, gets worse after his mother's death. As his stepfather becomes increasingly hostile, Luke, now running the family funeral home business, must make sense of the messages he's receiving from the dead. Flat characters prevent the story from creating anything more than superficial suspense, but the spooky premise and accessible text may grab reluctant readers.
