Publisher Description

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Past midnight, Chyna Shepard, twenty-six, gazes out a moonlit window, unable to sleep on her first night in the Napa Valley home of her best friend’s family. Instinct proves reliable. A murderous sociopath, Edgler Foreman Vess, has entered the house, intent on killing everyone inside. A self-proclaimed “homicidal adventurer,” Vess lives only to satisfy all appetites as they arise, to immerse himself in sensation, to live without fear, remorse, or limits, to live with intensity. Chyna is trapped in his deadly orbit.

Chyna is a survivor, toughened by a lifelong struggle for safety and self-respect. Now she will be tested as never before. At first her sole aim is to get out alive—until, by chance, she learns the identity of Vess’s next intended victim, a faraway innocent only she can save. Driven by a newly discovered thirst for meaning beyond mere self-preservation, Chyna musters every inner resource she has to save an endangered girl . . . as moment by moment, the terrifying threat of Edgler Foreman Vess intensifies.

"This wasn't as scary as I expected it to be, unlike The Taking. More like nail-biting suspenseful. What I really like about Dean Koontz novels are the adept description of its heroes' (and in this case, of the villain's as well) thought process as they do the things that will get them out of the tight spot they were thrown in. I understand that it will throw some people off, but I find it really cool, un-corny, and un-boring. If you want a no nonsense suspense novel, please do grab a copy of this. It's worth every dime or peso. :)"

    " This book scared the crap out of me. Dean Koontz has a tendency to be outlnadish with his books and characters but this particular book describes a serial killer that is chillingly real.. When I finally put the book down I had nightmares for 3 days. "

    " One of my favourite thrillers! Definitely my favourite by Koontz. The title of this book is pretty self explanatory, from beginning to end it is pure intensity. I loved the heroine in this book and the story itself was so good, I could not put it down. "

    " When was the last time you read a book that made you shout out loud at the main character? That made your heart race and set you so on edge that you jumped at every creek in the floorboards or had to make a conscious effort to relax all the muscles you've tensed while reading? This appropriately named book did all of the above for me, making for a thrilling read once I got past the implausibility of the scenario and the uneasiness of spending half the book inside the head of a disgustingly lucid serial killer.

    " This was kind of hard for me to read because it's about this creepy serial killer and it's pretty graphic, (it even gave me a nightmare)I only kept reading to make sure he got what was coming to him in the end. "
