Music either soothes or unleashes the savage beast. This heart-pounding suspense begins at the Wine Valley amphitheater where a black metal band, "The Ghouls," performs on Halloween night. Detective Max King, Dr. Joy Burton, and much of the local police force work security. Max and Joy expect a crowd of ghosts, ghouls, and Gothic goblins. But no one expects the horrific finale of an on-stage murder. While solving the case, Max takes the next step in uncovering his and Joy's mysterious past - no record exists of their early years before two lawmen adopted them and split them apart. Max runs the DNA of his adoptive father, David King. For some, the truth provides closure. For others, the truth opens an abyss. Step into the vineyards and revel in the wicked world of Wine Valley.
