As I am a huge Dean Koontz fan this book took me awhile to track down. While it is not the best book he has written. It shows how much reality he puts into his characters. This is not the dean koontz books you are probably used to reading as there is no supernatural goings ons or anything like that. It is wholly and completely a crime novel and it is pretty damned good. While it may not be the best, it is by far nowhere near the worst. If you are a Dean Koontz or just a crime novel fan I suggest you track this down. You will not regret it.
