“A Little Slice of Heaven”

Rappahanok Falls is just that—until a black Dodge Viscount with the vanity plate MANA arrives late one evening. The mysterious figure behind the wheel is anything but human—and he’s starving.
When multiple acts of violence committed by a stranger leave everyone afraid, Chief of Police Brock Lowery finds himself in the middle of something much worse than he anticipated. He is forced to question whom he can trust as people he’s known his entire life turn against him to serve this mysterious figure. Can Lowery save the town and the people he’s sworn to protect, or will he fail against the monster that has brought evil down upon Rappahanok Falls?

"The Devil Within Us All" is a supernatural horror novel about a town whose very soul is infected with a disease—one that rots it from the inside out. In a complicated narrative exploring the dark side of human nature and the power one man can wield over a group of people, William F. Gray tells a story inspired heavily by charismatic individuals who abuse their power to manipulate and bring out the worst in others. Evil comes in many shapes - most often in monsters pretending to be men.

    William F. Gray is the best-selling author of THE DEVIL WITHIN US ALL, a small town horror novel inspired by the evil average people are capable of on an everyday basis. Taking cues from his own experience and the world at large, Gray creates horror that attempts to worm itself into your heart as well as your mind. His self-published debut THE MAN BEHIND THE DOOR tackles themes such as grief, trauma, and addiction through the lens of a ghost story, the main character of which is inspired by his own late father, while his latest effort OUR FATHERS' BURDEN is Appalachian horror that focuses on the stigma that still surrounds mental health issues, especially amongst men.

    He currently lives in West Virginia with his wife, son, and daughter while working as a Lead Pharmacy Technician. His hobbies include reading, playing video games with his wife, and playing music.

I just finished The Devil Within us all last night/the wee hours of the morning it was absolutely amazing. definitely had Stephen king vibes to it. You will not be able to put this book down. The twists and turns and the OMG and what the heck moments will have you hooked from beginning to end.. Definitely the best book I have read this year. I highly recommend it as well as this author. can't wait to see what comes out next. I am definitely now a fan for life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Wicked House gem!
Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2023

William F. Gray's 'The Devil Within Us All' manages to hit the sweet spot when it comes to psychological and supernatural horror! The book reminded me of some classic King novels, where the entire small town population is the hero of the story, and the supernatural evil turns the poor town into a self-contained Armageddon. But there's a very powerful narrative device here, namely the fact that Mr. Tanya -the demon not even trying to pass as entirely human- exploits the grievances, the anger, and the resentment coiled naturally inside each of us, bringing them out in order to spread violence and death without himself lifting a finger. That sinister creature makes evil-doing seem natural, and Rappahanok Falls is utterly unprepared for it: evil spreads quite fast, a large number of distinct characters are introduced, each with interesting behaviors and motivations, and horrible things start happening within a few pages. This gives Gray the opportunity to show off his skills in narration, description, and characterization: the story is cleverly plotted, well-constructed, very powerfully textured, with deeply chilling horror. However, there are some points where a strong religiosity shows through, and some brutally serious commentary on the human condition and the human relation to God are brought to the table. Unlike several much talked about novels of last year, the ending of this novel feels genuinely satisfying, without pressuring the reader into suspending their disbelief. Overall, this book is another Wicked House gem, and the perfect summer read!

I enjoyed this book. Good for Christians to read … will make them aware of the covert way the enemy works. You won’t see him coming. I couldn’t finish the book because I needed the defeat to come sooner. Would like to read more of his books.

3.0 out of 5 stars Stephen King takeoff that started well but halfway lost my interest.
Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2023

I started off liking this book a lot. It reminded me of Stephen King's Needful Things. Not quite, but in the same vein. An evil person or entity of some sort making people do evil things. Controlling them through their weaknesses. Good character development and good back stories. But as the plot wound up to the final showdown, I found that I had lost interest. In Needful Things the sheriff was the character that held everything together. Here, there was no grounding in a single hero. And the ending didn't seem to make much sense to me. But I can't say why without ruining it. So this is a three and a half star review.

5.0 out of 5 stars A page turner that gets you hooked from the first page
Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2023

It's been a while where I picked up a book and raced to finish it. This book definitely had me hooked.

The book starts with a woman who commits a horrible crime. Then switches over to a small town where things start to turn after the woodland creatures decide throw themselves under a train. This first horrific event is not the last as a mysterious figure starts to influence people to do horrible things. As the book progresses things only get worse.

One reason this book excels is the characters. I cared or hated every character. I rooted for the good guys and hoped every vile plot from the bad guys would fail. The characters are well fleshed out and with such a large amount clearly written without it being confusing.

The other part is the novel reminds me of King but several of his novels combined, but in a different light because William Gray has his own voice. There is a reference to King and done in way that's so satisfying. It's like a Easter egg for all of Constant Readers.

This is a horror novel that enthralls you from the first page until the last and never disappoints.

Chances are good somebody you come to love is going to die unceremoniously by book’s end, and that’s no spoiler. There are a dozen characters worth loving. My favorites were Olive, Isaac, and Nolan.

The Devil Within Us All starts fast and never lets up, but I knew it was a unique work of genius when I finished the final 100 pages in a sitting, staying up past midnight and neglecting the planned revision of my current writing project.

Listen, if I’m honest I’m jealous of William F. Gray’s massive talent, and I can’t recommend this book highly enough. I’ll be reflecting on my own religious upbringing for weeks to come after finishing this novel.

4.0 out of 5 stars A fun and wild ride, but not for the characters

I went into this one blind, and am happier for having done so. It is reminiscent of a few classics but come at the main themes (good and evil, politics, religion etc) from a skewed view. Things don't turn out the way you think, and that's a good thing.
Some great villains, some likeable wannabe heroes and a clash between good and evil.

Reviewed in Canada on January 8, 2024

I really enjoyed the writing style, definitely a Stephen King vibe, especially the story the mist. The story started off strong. However, around the halfway mark, I completely lost interest. Maybe I'll pick it back up again in a bit. But I found the number of characters to be confusing and tough to follow for me.

This book starts off with high tension, and somehow just keeps building it and building it, right to the very end! There are twists and turns galore, and just when you think you know what's going to happen, it all suddenly changes and you're left feeling shocked and amazed. There's plenty of gore and menace, and it all adds to the story, creating a very enjoyable tale. I shall definitely be reading more from this author!
