After plowing through this book, Stephen King and Dean Koontz have absolutely nothing to worry about. Not a bad book, but the author only spends one to five pages on a scene then jumps to something else. By the time your mind grasps where he is in the story, you're somewhere else. After getting over halfway through the book, I found I really didn't care what happened to anyone.

First Nicholson work..............won't be last. Once good and evil established the action was intense. Liked because ALL the players had differing fates.

Because a new presence has taken up residence in Windshake.
