MY REVIEW

First off, what a fantastic cover for the third book in The Sleepy Hollow Incident by P D Alleva. Look into those eyes and tell me what you see. Does Marc Saduj have any humanity left inside him? Lori learns things about her family’s evil past. Can her love for Mark save him?

P D Alleva’s writing draws me in, deeper and deeper, because I don’t have any idea where I am going or how I’m going to get there. I just know it’s going to be frightening, dangerous, dark and disturbing.

The Sleepy Hollow Incident by P D Alleva has an eerie, gothic feel where evil oozes off the pages, spreading danger throughout the town in the search of more hearts for the demonic. Can the town survive? We shall see in Book IV, the final book in The Sleepy Hollow Incident by P D Alleva.

GOODREADS BLURB

Where desire collides with darkness, every secret bleeds, and love is the most dangerous weapon of all.

Winter in Sleepy Hollow grows colder—and deadlier. As Detective Stephen Carver investigates a string of mutilated corpses marked by satanic symbols, his search draws him closer to a hidden truth that could unravel the very soul of the Hollow. The deeper he digs, the more he feels the malignant pull of something ancient, something that feeds on fear and sacrifice.

Meanwhile, Lori Francon awakens to a new nightmare. Poisoned by betrayal and hunted by the shadows of her own family, she discovers that the house she once called home is a cathedral of corruption, its foundations bound to demons and blood rites. What waits for her inside is more than madness—it is a revelation that could damn her bloodline forever.

And Marc Saduj, hollowed by fever and haunted by the demon scar carved into his flesh, finds himself drawn back to the village streets. But with every step, the Man in Black’s grip tightens, dragging Marc closer to a possession that could unleash hell on earth.

As the walls close in, old bargains resurface, new devils arrive to claim their due, and the line between the living and the damned dissolves. With the Francon legacy steeped in sacrilege and Sleepy Hollow itself trembling on the edge of chaos, Lori must face a question more terrifying than death itself:

When love is twisted into a curse, can it still be the key to salvation—or will it open the gates to eternal ruin?

Gothic, brutal, and mesmerizing, The Sleepy Hollow Incident: Book Three plunges deeper into a world of forbidden love, demonic possession, and cosmic horror. For fans of The Witching Hour and The Haunting of Hill House, this installment will leave you breathless, broken, and begging for more.

$25 GC – GRQ: Get Rich Quick by Steven Bernstein @partnersincr1me @stevebfilm #getrichquick

GRQ by Steven Bernstein Banner

GRQ: Get Rich Quick

by Steven Bernstein

November 17 – December 12, 2025 Virtual Book Tour

Synopsis:

 

One day. One city on the edge. One man gambling it all.

In a Los Angeles rattled by an earthquake and on the brink of collapse, Marlon has twenty-four hours to change his fate. Drowning in debt, reeling from personal loss, and desperate to save his family, he’s seduced by a shadowy financial guru promising salvation. But as Marlon spirals deeper into a web of risk, secrets long buried begin to surface—and his final gamble might cost him everything.

Taut, urgent, and psychologically astute, Get Rich Quick is a gripping descent into the dangers of ambition, delusion, and the American obsession with success.

Soon to be a major worldwide film release.

Praise for GRQ:

“Reading this book was like listening to a charming con man talk circles around the truth while you laugh and cringe in equal measure. The narrator’s voice is hypnotic. It’s funny, fast-talking, and flawed. Bernstein’s writing feels conversational and unfiltered, filled with tangents, wild lists, and jabs at everything from labradoodles to General Tso’s chicken. It’s brilliantly messy. The narrative never tries to be neat or linear. That looseness works in its favor. It mirrors the chaos of the characters’ lives and thoughts, making the humor land harder and the emotions hit sharper when they sneak in.”
~ Literary Titan

“Author Steven Bernstein builds this sneaky domestic thriller with addictive, vignette-like chapters narrated by voices that alternate between self-justification and raw emotion… Bernstein’s strength lies in how he seamlessly layers humor, suspense and sorrow. On one page, we’re laughing at Marlon’s ridiculous schemes and evasions. On the next, the ground shakes — literally, as Los Angeles is rocked by earthquakes, and figuratively, as the family fractures under pressure.”
~ BestThrillers.com

“Very rarely have I come across a book as riveting and thoroughly engaging as Steven Bernstein’s GRQ. The characters are so vivid and compelling that it wouldn’t surprise me at all if I were to encounter them in real life. An absolute must-read.'”
~ Gale Anne Hurd, Executive Producer (FEAR THE WALKING DEAD, MANKILLER)

“This little book of wisdom is an iChing for the mid 2020s. Marlon is the infernal dumbass in his schemes to Get Rich Quick, to the despair of his darling Viola. The problem is that there’s a Marlon in all of us. Well, most of us. Not me, obviously. A brilliant evisceration of debt and delusion.'”
~JP Maxwell, author and award-winning filmmaker

“I loved it: it feels like a dreamlike odyssey. A book perfectly suited for our era — a world where financial gain overshadows everything else, reminiscent of ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’. The short chapters and vignettes hit you at breakneck speed; you feel like you’re watching someone unravel before your very eyes. A truly compelling read.”
~ Tom Walker, Actor (Jonathan Pie)

“GRQ by Steven Bernstein is a pulsating, psychological thriller. I loved it.”
~ Keith McNally, New York Times best selling author
