Federal Agent Jane Raczyck is tired of her job. So is Sheriff Sixtus Davis, the head law enforcement officer in the town of Turpin’s Gulch. But when Raczyck’s agency sends her to work with Davis on combating the drug epidemic in the small Appalachian hamlet, the two are compelled to investigate the local carnival and its mysterious impresario… even though they’d much rather be doing other things together.

A Halloween adventure/mystery

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 25, 2020

Verified Purchase

A female government agent and a local sheriff try to solve the mystery of certain weird events that occur in a backwoods village. These include the presence of Flying Jack, one of those interesting crypto-creatures that haunt wooded areas, as well as a mysterious character named Vespasian Moon, who stages an autumn carnival in the town every year. The plot is more charming than scary (it includes a delightful dog with an interesting name) and a lot of the phenomena remain unexplained at the end, but a couple of quotations summarize all the reader needs to know.
Jane’s conclusion: “I think for him [Vespasian Moon] Halloween was a way of warding off true evil.”
And finally, the concluding lines of the book: “Should we go in?” Six asked finally.
“No,” Jane replied after a pause. “There are some things that are better to suspect than to know for sure.”
Recommended.

This is a long short story that provides some lighthearted, Halloween fun with a bit of everything from romance to the supernatural. Definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a well-written, slightly tongue-in-cheek, Halloween type story.

Berthold Gambrel's latest book is mysterious, captivating and keeps the reader wondering what's going to happen next. Its short and concise, but full of creepy feelings. A fun read if you like goosebumps.

Spooky entertaining fun!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 15, 2019

Berthold Gambrel writes in a very cinematic fashion. You can see the events happening as you read and some of the images are quite startling. Recommended for readers who like a little romance mixed in with their chills.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 29, 2019

This is a highly entertaining story that combines crime fighting with supernatural high jinks. I really enjoyed Gambrel's novel, The Directorate, which is an action packed space opera kind of story. Vespasian Moon's Fabulous Autumn Carnival is something very different. It has thrills, but there's also a delightful comic goofiness to it that I really enjoyed. It's a crowd pleaser, pure and simple.

This was a great treat to read in the Halloween season. Vespasian Moon (love that name!) is not even a character we see much of, but we do have a Sheriff Sixtus Davis and a Jane Raczyck, and a Rex, and the odd Latin phrase in there. The whole point of the story is revealed in a fabulous denouement that was totally unexpected. Having read some of the author's other stories, it seems he is developing quite a collection of fun Halloween stories. Keep it going!
