Koontz is definitely a master of suspense, and this book is no deviation from that. Other than that, I felt this book was just okay. Like I said in my update, either Koontz has a HUGE vocabulary, or he is a "thesaurus writer" and it shows throughout this book. Besides the suspense aspect of the book, I didn't find much more in it. Everything else seemed to wrap up way to easily, like his plot just took the easy way out. Past the suspense, the more I think about it, the plot seemed pretty darn thin, actually. And all the while it seemed as if Koontz was trying to go for the biggest gross out factors he could in each of his characters, or, well, I guess, in each of his antagonists, and even including the retired priest, who wasn't an antagonist, or protagonist, much more of an ancillary character I guess. Anyway, what I'm trying to say here, I guess, is that this book is a nice little suspenseful read, good for a beach or vacation easy read, but not much more than that. It won't really make you think, or probably remember to much of it a couple months after you read it, unless it has you checking behind closed doors or too carefully in mirrors. This book was very disturbing to me. The detail of the crimes was more than I was comfortable with and I came away feeling very unsettled. I read to be entertained, to learn, or be forced to think about things in a new light. That being said, it was a classic Dean Koontz that kept you on the edge of you seat. So if you are a Dean Koontz fan you will probably enjoy this book. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

After Detective John Calvino receives a signed confession to a shocking crime from 14-year-old Billy Lucas, he feels that somehow Billy has come home with him, to his family. Then another killing spree happens, just as and when John Calvino dreaded it would. Billy is safely locked away, but not the "ghost", if the ghost exists, that links these murders with past crimes, and with John Calvino. Anything could happen, and surely will-- again.
