The fourth chilling installment in Ross’s horror series—but don’t worry, it’s the perfect place to jump in.

In Salem’s Fall, Harvard Law grad James Woodsen lands the opportunity of a lifetime: defending billionaire Damien Blackhollow, accused of murdering his fiancée. But the case takes her to Salem’s Fall, a town with unsettling ties to her own family history.

As the body count rises and Halloween draws near, James begins to question everything—especially whether Damien is guilty… or something far worse. With Rektok Ross you know that the evil is coming, it's just a matter of how and when.

Salem’s Fall by Rektok Ross, this is about a junior associate at an influential criminal law firm trying to find her place and make her name after making a rookie mistake. unfortunately there are those at the law firm that won’t let James forget it but one of them is not Quinn one of the partners in the guy responsible for having her there in the first place. When he asked her to be on a blowout case about a billionaire named Damien Black Hollow she agrees and wants to make him proud it’s too bad one of her biggest negaters Mark is also working on the case. When things beyond her control make her look ill equip to be on the team Quinn gives her an out and it’s one she quickly takes but soon she learned the client Damien will take his business elsewhere unless James is reinstated as a team member. this isn’t going to be your run of the mill murder trial nor is Damien you’re run of the mill clients he causes James to feel a great dislike for him but at the same time feels drawn to him but she also harbors affection for Quinn she knows she must keep her feelings at bay to focus on the case but soon it’s not her heart on the line but her life. when the book 1st started I did roll my eyes a couple of times and thought I wasn’t going to like this book because why wouldn’t this brilliant junior lawyer tell her boss that her mom was killed the exact same way but this is just one example of times I thought James didn’t act like the smart young attorney she was supposed to be once it got into the paranormal and she visited Salem‘s fall by then I was all in this really turned out to be an awesome read the only thing that would’ve made it better is if had Lucky started talking but I know it wasn’t that type of book but boy was lucky a smart smart cat. I really didn’t get her attraction to Damien especially after she found out everything she didn’t know about him but despite that I rated this book for stars and totally agree with everyone of them. I couldn’t wait to read this book and it did not disappoint. I love the authors books and felt so lucky to be an early reader of this one and can’t wait to read more from her in the future. What a great Halloween read if you love mystery the paranormal and spooky happenings especially secret organization type stuff you’ll absolutely enjoy this book. #Netgalley#Ike13Books,, #TheBlindReviewer, #MyHonestReview, #RiktokRoss, #SalemsFall,

**** contains spoilers******


This book started off really good and then took a turn i wasn’t expecting, supernatural (which was interesting). The relationship between Damian and James (FMC) came out of left field, like i could feel the sexual tension between them but the tenderness Damian expressed was surprising. The novel did end with a lot of questions unanswered: like i get The Veil was responsible for the killings but who ordered them if it wasn’t Damien or Lucian? Did the ritual work? The one their dad did in the 90s helped their company out of bankruptcy or whatever, but the company was doing fine so what was the reason for the ascension ritual when everyone already accepted Damien as the leader? Idk..just my thoughts, obviously read too much into this but I love cultish stuff. Oh! Another thing, the FMC, James, wow was she not smart a lot of times when she’s supposed to be a smart attorney. And her cat? If he was so smart (i wanna say her familiar but she’s not a witch) why did he lead her out of the mansion when it was all a ruse—i know a cat couldn’t possibly know but there’s something different about this cat that we never find out.

If you are addicted to all things fall like I am, this is the perfect thriller for you. Salem’s Fall is an intricate balance of psychological thriller, legal battles, secret societies, romance, and all of my fall favorites creating a mysterious and exciting novel. Although I’m enjoying this as part of summerween, it is definitely the perfect October read curled up with a pumpkin spice latte, a cozy blanket, and your favorite little furball.
