In typical Dean Koontz fashion, this book was twisted but very well written. Not a horror book per se but kind of a cross between mystery and sci-fi.

An organization run by the rich and well-connected are murdering those who need murdering (from their point of view which is decidedly skewed.) The group develop a clone that is trained to be an assassin with no remorse. Of course, this assassin goes off his program and runs amok. The book details his adventures and the organizations efforts to find and restrain the clone.

I listened to this audiobook in my car and they many voices and inflections used in the reading really made for an enjoyable tale
