I almost gave up on this book because the first half was very slow. But it really picked up in the second half! Glad I didn't give up on it, but some parts could've been shortened up a bit.

I enjoyed this so much. I found it reminiscent of his earlier books WATCHERS and FEAR NOTHING which are my favorite Dean Koontz books.

A tapestry of words weave the introduction to the main protagonist of the novel - Katie is a widow living in solitude on an island, trying to resolve the past with the present. I didn't keep track but, for at least the first quarter of the book, Koontz builds the suspense. We get glimpses of the past that led Katie to live on the island but no inkling of the direction to which the plot will take us.
When the action explodes, it does so with a vengeance! Shooting, frantic escapes, and a variety of evil-doers are all in the mishmash. The evil doers are satisfactorily eliminated (for the most part) and we are presented with an ending that is hopeful if not entirely complete.
A worthwhile read - recommended.
