Be Careful of What You Wish 4 Barbara J. Wells

A wish tossed out carelessly on the worst night in her life proves impossible to escape when a sista, Lindsey-Smith, a struggling songwriter, must confront a crushing childhood secret in order to end a sadistic serial killer's reign. She's lead into this fight for her life when seduced by an intuitive exotic Chicago homicide detective, Lieutenant Lake, who has hunted the monster for a year. He targets girls linked by a freakish tapestry that must be unraveled by those who wish to stop him.

Only one person on earth can make that hell-of-a wish come true. Lindsey-Smith. She's got it like that because Satan made it so during his annual pursuit of his favorite drink, courageous souls with a dash of vanity on the rocks. It is Halloween, that one day of the year when earth spaces and hell's faces get horizontal in a parellel universe. Those caught on the rim are there by Satan's invitation to make a wish come true or die.
