Description:
"Past midnight, Chyna Shepherd, twenty-six, gazed 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 Forman Vess, has entered the house, intent on killing everyone inside. 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."--from cover, p. [4]
Review Quotes: "Chills the reader to the core and establishes Koontz as a master."--The Associated Press
"A taut, nerve-tingling thriller from page one."
--The Christian Science Monitor "Tumbling, hallucinogenic prose . . . The story does not move so much as rocket up the . . . gloomy highway with the reader in violent pursuit."
--The New York Times "The most viscerally exciting thriller of the year."
--Publishers Weekly
