From Publishers Weekly-
"Once in a very great while, an author does everything right-as Koontz has in this marvelous novel.
Odd Thomas, who narrates, is odd indeed: only 20, he works contentedly as a fry cook...The reason for his lack of ambition? A much rarer talent: Odd sees and converses with ghosts, the lingering dead who have yet to pass on, a secret he has kept from nearly everyone but his girlfriend, an eccentric author friend and the local police chief, whom he occasionally helps solve terrible crimes."
