This is the fourth book in the Odd Thomas series. In this one, Odd has visions of a sea of blood--a red tidal wave--coming in from the ocean. He meets an interesting young pregnant girl, and upon touching her gets the visions again. Soon it's a race against time as Odd tries to unravel why he's getting the visions, what he's supposed to do about them, and locate the bad guys.

The book moved along quickly. But, I thought the best part of it was the characters that Odd meets along the way. From Hutch, the retired screen star, to pregnant girl that draws him into the vision, to Frank Sinatra's ghost, and even the proprietor of the "Cottage of the Happy Monster." Even the bad guys were interesting! It's always fun to see the personalities of this author's characters unfold, and sometimes very difficult to predict what they're going to do next.

I enjoyed the book. Of course, Dean Koontz is my favorite author!
