The Night Janitor by T. F. Allen is one of those books that will have you still wanting more when it is over. This was my first read from this author and now I wish he had 20 more books to read. I may seem to give positive reviews on a lot of books but I tend to read only the genres that I truly enjoy and have already formed an opinion and ideas based on the writers ability to first, keep my attention and second, the authors ability to allow his or writing to flow so that it is a very easy read that makes since. If I really could give this book 10 stars, I would. It mixes good with bad, families with problems, and the one thing I never would have thought I would like mixed in...... the supernatural. I did not read the blurb on this one before requesting it so I went into it blindly. I am so grateful because it turned out to be one of just a few that I would not only purchase for friends and family, but for myself to read again. Allen does a great job keeping within the storyline and his writing ability is amazingly accurate and spot on with this category. This one left me wanting more and I hope and pray this author will continue to share novels with us.
10+++++ stars


Thank you netgalley as well the author/publisher for allowing me to read this novel in exchange for my honest review.

The Night Janitor by TR Allen was not what I was expecting, it was so much better. A bit of mystery, family drama, supernatural elements with interesting and unusual characters. Something different from the norm, a very good read.

Thank you to the publisher, author, and NetGalley for the opportunity to preview the book.

Thank you net galley for my coffee this was a good paranormal book. This is an author that I will look forward to reading again. Be prepared to stay up all night

This was my first read from this author but I doubt it'll be my last. This was a fast-paced, unique thriller that managed to keep my attention from the first to last page! It was easy to get lost in this world that Allen has created and I found myself really connecting with these characters, hoping for the best for them even when I had no idea where it was all heading. I think my favourite part of this was the simple fact that i've read a lot of thrillers yet i've never read anything like this before. The plot was so unique and Allen executed this premise brilliantly.

"The Night Janitor" by T. F. Allen

Well written and interesting story with well developed characters.
A fast paced thriller full of emotions! I loved that the chapters are not too long with always something happening!
A really good read you don't want to put down.

Thank you to NetGalley and the Publisher for the ARC of this book. This is my honest review. All opinions are my own.

This was a suspenseful and thrilling read as we have three siblings - one who can kill with a whisper, one who can save with a touch and the other who can silence with a whisper. Growing up Luke and AnnaMarie went through life as slaves to their father's con ways as he was a faith preacher who one day when the pair of them no longer decided to play into his cons, they were left behind and AnnaMaria was attacked. As they grew older, the siblings went their separate ways. AnnaMaria became one of the world's most powerful females and is on her way to becoming president as with her power; no one can stand in her way. That is except for two people Luke and their younger brother. Luke has to keep on the move as AnnaMaria keeps sending her goons after him. What happens though when their father goes to a journalist who has the skills to track them all down? Now Luke, along with a newfound friend - a nurse must stay one step ahead to protect his younger brother from danger. I quite enjoyed the suspense part of this book, and I found myself enjoying the personalities of the different siblings. If you love Christian Fiction with an Edge, then check out The Night Janitor by T.F Allen.

This is absolutely a good book! I never encountered this kind of plot. Its unique and absolutely enjoyable considering this is the first book I have read from T.F Allen. And I could say that the author has a way of delivering a story in a way that readers could be easily drawn to. The writing style was so simple to understand.

Overall, its a good book. Definitely checking out some of the author’s other books.

This book is about a janitor named Luke. He possesses an unique ability to heal people. He stays on the move for fear of being discovered. If anyone found out about his abilities he would be exploited. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Luke also has a sister that wants revenge on him. He stays one step ahead of her and her hired guns. I won't spoil the ending, but I was surprised, and disappointed at the same time. I will definitely be reading the next book. At least I hope there is another book, turning it into a series.

I was pleasantly surprised by this book. It is a propulsive thriller with a tinge of the supernatural. Two siblings, Luke and Anna, are the yin and yang of one another. Anna has the ability to cause devastating sickness and death wherever she goes while Luke is able to heal. The impending battle between them is almost biblical in proportion.

This is a story that will hook you from the first page and entrance you as it takes you on a wild ride. I wouldn't miss it!

Undecided if this book was for me or not. I enjoyed it but just not sure the supernatural element to it was what I was expecting. Worth a read!

Good vs. evil; dark vs. light

Lucian and Annamaria's father was a con man, a charlatan, moving his wife and children around the country and bilking people out of money all while claiming to be a faith healer.

Little did he realize that his children actually had paranormal abilities. Annamaria can hurt or even kill people with a touch and a whisper while Lucian actually can heal people just by touching them.

When Annamaria is 13 years old, the parents desert their children, afraid of Annamaria's abilities.

Nowadays, while Lucian "Luke" travels around the country working at lowly positions in hospitals and nursing homes, healing people and then moving on when his results start to get noticed, Annamaria gains status and power and looks endlessly for her father and her older brother with thoughts of vengeance foremost in her plans.

I loved this book. The author did a wonderful job in fleshing out all of the characters in the story, giving background and motivation.

The story itself reminded me of some of Dean Koontz's books - the ones that got me hooked on him in the first place.

The story travels through Texas and into Mexico and the settings are a big part of the story.

I highly recommend this story if you like psychological thrillers with a paranormal slant.

I received this book from Net Galley in the hopes that I would read it and leave an unbiased review.

I received this book free from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
Thanks NetGalley!

The Night Janitor is a supernatural thriller. Not my typical genre, but the blurb drew me in.

Can you imagine having the "gifts" these siblings have? I'd love to have the gift of healing. The gift of killing by whisper/touch? NO thank you. But let's get to it. these siblings aren't a close, affectionate pair... Actually, she wants to see her brother dead. He's on the run, but healing at hospitals/nursing homes as he goes. The siblings were left behind by their parents at the age of 13 when their parents discovered their powers, AnnaMaria has never let that go.

the book is a fast read with well-developed characters including the secondary. try it out.

This book reminds me of the TV Show, Heroes. Although, different from my usual reads, I was captivated right from the blurb.

This is the story of two siblings with special gifts. Anna Maria can kill with just a whisper and a touch. For instance, if she touches your hand and whispers arthritis, that is it for you! On the other hand, Luke has the gift of healing. I can’t tell you how much I envied him. Imagine having a gift that allows you to stop pain and suffering. I wish this was a real gift!

The story is fast-paced and thrilling right from the first page. Luke is a fugitive and there are people who won’t stop until he is dead. On the other hand, Annamaria was dark and twisted. I was fascinated and scared by her gift and how she intended to use it. She was cold, meticulous in her mission and vengeance, definitely not one to make an enemy out of.

The author did a great job in crafting the two characters. I also like the fact that he didn’t dwell on trying to explain the whys and hows of the gifts. Some people walk, others talk, we read, Anna Maria can cause diseases and Luke heals, that is just how things are. The two aren’t the only characters who were well developed. There were a number of other support characters who stood out for various reasons like Clyde for his greed for fame and Harry for his sweetness.

The Night Janitor is an entertaining, captivating supernatural thriller. As I’ve mentioned, it’s not a genre that I have read before but I am now intrigued.

Thank you Netgalley for allowing me to read this book. Sorry to say I did not enjoy it. It was not the kind of book that I usually read.

Suspenseful and action-packed. Fast, furious and well worth the read. Thanks to NetGalley for the advance copy.

The Night Janitor by T.F. Allen is a thriller, with a touch of supernatural.

First, let me thank NetGalley, and the author, for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

My Synopsis:    (No major reveals, but if concerned, skip to My Opinions)
Luke has a gift. His hands can heal. He moves from place to place, working in hospitals and nursing homes as a janitor. He helps when he can. But he never stays long, because he’s on the run. His younger sister is trying to find him, and she wants him dead.

Annamaria also has a gift. Her hands are deadly. She can give you any disease she wants. Luke is right, she wants her brother dead. She has also never given up looking for their father.

Nicholas Gabor and his wife abandoned their children when they discovered Annamaria’s gift may be out of her control. Annamaria was only 13. She never forgave her father.

It’s been 29 years….and Annamaria is finally going to get her revenge. But there are more players in this game than anyone is aware.

My Opinions:
I loved Allen’s first book (The Keeper), but I I think I enjoyed this one even more. Needless to say, this author has my attention. I love his writing style. Everything flows so naturally, so it makes for an easy read.

I love how an ordinary story takes on new meaning with the addition of a supernatural aspect. This book could easily be written without the “gifts”. Brother/sister rivalry to the extreme. Add their gifts, and the book explodes.

His heroes and villains are well-defined, with secondary characters stepping up to the plate at key moments. I was quickly drawn to the characters, and to the story. Allen made you believe in their gifts as he immersed you in their plights. The action is non-stop, and thus the book is a fast read. You don’t want to set it down in case you miss something.

Good vs Evil. Brother vs Sister. And secrets. What more do you want? It’s a great read, and I highly recommend it.

Watch your back Joe Hart, T.F. Allen is after your crown! I was so utterly surprised by this supernatural thriller you could've knocked me down with a feather. This makes a refreshing change to the identikit thrillers that are absolutely flooding the marketplace of late. It is effectively a meditation on the age-old depiction of good vs evil and had me captivated from the opening pages, so much so that I read it in a single sitting.

Brother and sister, Luke and Anna both have supernatural powers; he has the power to heal by touch, she the power to kill. This is a very readable and exciting thriller with great character development and it flowed nicely from page to page. There's certainly no love lost between these siblings as she is out to assassinate him. The worst case of sibling rivalry! The twisty narrative continues for the entirety of the book and concludes in an explosive and satisfying fashion.

The Night Janitor is one of the most original page-turner's I've had the pleasure to read in recent years. I truly hope it receives the attention it deserves. I wish more readers would embrace self-published writers. I am super impressed and am already anticipating my next encounter with Allen's work. Many thanks to Weapenry Co-Op/T.F. Allen for an ARC.

Starting this book without having read anything else by this author and simple amazed at how quickly he is able to pull readers into this supernatural thriller that will have readers finishing it late into the night unable to pull away. T. F Allen creates a world that readers are able to get lost in for a few hours with the characters who are details, real and heartbreakingly lost in the world they are running from.

This is one author readers will not be able to get enough of.



Thank you to Netgalley and the author for the advance copy of T.F. Allen The Night Janitor.

I seriously loved this book! What a great story!
You follow Luke, a janitor at a hospital, Luke has a very special power….one that people are trying to kill him over. Then you meet Luke’s sister, she also has a special power….This is the Good Vs. Evil storytelling that I like!
What a great ride – easy read, but an exciting one! I loved the authors voice and writing style. I have never read anything by T.F. Allen but I would again! What a great story spinner!

Had been looking forward to reading this book but sadly it just wasn’t the one for me. I couldn’t get into it
