About the book

Halloween, 1963 - small-town Wisconsin. Children dressed as ghosts, vampires and hoboes chase one another on and off porches and through the streets, hunting for candy bars and thrills. Meanwhile their parents fill the local bars, joking and fighting, dancing to the music on the jukebox and getting drunk. And in the local park, a group of older kids are plotting murder. As the night unfolds, the characters converge in a series of clashes that changes the lives of everyone involved. In stark language and with bold, cinematic vision, Dixon portrays a town at war.
