Agatha Christie: "Halloween Party" (ISBN 13: 9780007120680; ISBN 10: 0007120680) -- and all the other books set on Halloween, though most people will probably reserve them for that square.

Elizabeth Bowen: "The Last September" (ISBN 13: 9780385720144; ISBN 10: 0385720149)
Gustave Flaubert: "November" (ISBN 13: 9781843911128; ISBN 10: 1843911124)

Ken Follett: "Fall of Giants" (ISBN 13: 9780330460552; ISBN 10: 0330460552)

Robert Crais: "Free Fall" (ISBN 13: 9780553565096; ISBN 10: 0553565095)

... and ... (drumroll) -- one very Halloween'ish book indeed:

Ian Rankin: "The Falls" (ISBN 13: 9780312982409; ISBN 10: 0312982402) -- which also works for "Dark and Stormy Night", as well as "Genre: Mystery," as central to the plot is a [real] set of ritualistic mini-coffins found in Edinburgh in the early 19th century, as well as overtones of body snatching à la Burke and Hare.
