More a horror story then a mystery novel.

Not Koontz best work so happy to read the afterward explaining that he expanded another author’s story. The lack of wit and intrigue of interjecting interesting knowledge was a downer for this reader.

I purchased this book on a whim while out shopping the other day as I favor Koontz's writing style, character & plot development, as a story unfolds for the reader. I started reading the book that evening and found it very hard to put down. I particularly thank Koontz for selecting the words so eloquently and his ever-flowing narrative format, which makes this book a pleasure to read. The storyline is something that builds itself exceptionally well in an ordered direction; meaning it flows on a calm stream with no rapids to pull you down to the bottom. Not once did I experience one of those "what just happened?" sections that are commonly popping up in books written by many authors out there in bookworld. The bottom line is that this book is worth the read and will not leave you disappointed as it nears its end; and then does end of course. What I really liked about this book is that it leaves a nice ending for a new beginning of some sort of sequel that I personally would read to continue this journey. Do not read me wrong, the books ends as a book should end, but there are possibilities for the next book. Cheers for the entertainment, Mr. Koontz.

This was originally published in the 80's, it's not new. :/
