Jack Nightingale used to be a negotiator. He was very good at his job, convincing jumpers not to jump and kidnappers to let go of hostages. But one day, he couldn't convince a nine-year-old girl not to jump and the reason why she jumped caused Jack to flip out. It cost him his badge, but he has no regrets.

Now, he runs his own private investigative firm. The hours are crappy, he can barely keep the bills paid, but he is his own boss. When he meets a lawyer, he thinks for a new job, he is stunned to learn that it's about an inheritance from his father. Jack's parents passed away in a car crash when he was a teen, so he is really confused. But, the lawyer explains to Jack it's from his real father and that he had been adopted.

Jack visits his inheritance, a behomoth of a mansion, finds a note there addressed to him and also finds a dvd in a safety deposit box. There, he learns that his father had sold Jack's soul to the devil when he was born. Not only that, he did it again with Jack's sister, whom Jack had no idea he had.

Jack considers it all hocus pocus. Who would believe that the devil is coming to collect Jack's soul when he turns thirty-three, just a mere two weeks away? Not Jack, that's for sure, until friends of his begin winding up dead.


A thrilling book from beginning to end, Nightfall is the first in a trilogy. I can't wait to get my hands on the next one, Midnight. A no nonsense detective against the chilling paranormal aspect of losing his soul and that of his friends will leave you on the edge of your seat. Leather writes with a compelling flair that will draw the reader into his suspenseful and chilling web until the last page. Thriller fans will enjoy this one!
