Have you ever wondered what mystical, magical events can
happen when time "stands still" on All Hallow's Eve?

The Magic Hour by James S. Crowley is a wonderfully entertaining book about two twin brothers who, like many twins, share a very special bond between them. When daylight savings time falls on All Hallow's Eve, the mystical veil between our world and the next stands still for an hour creating the perfect opportunity for a nine-year-old boy to communicate with his identical twin.... after his brother has passed away.

The Magic Hour is written with humor, suspense and the magic of love between two siblings. It's a perfect Halloween read for both teenagers and adults. Once I started reading it, I found it very hard to put down as you quickly get caught up in the emotions and events of the characters. Creatively written and enjoyable to read, this is a "must-have" book for chill autumn evenings.
