It is true Dean Koontz does write suspense really well. The book was fast paced and entertaining.
I disliked a few things gs though and could not give this book more than three stars.
I disliked that he switched back and forth between calling the main character by his first a d last name. He would switch sometimes in the the same paragraph. It was awkward and very annoying. I still have no idea why he chose to write like that.
I disliked the racism and prejudices that were just nonchalantly thrown in to the story.
I disliked the description of Alex and Courtney's beginning of their relationship where she was calling him ugly. The scene was awkward and weird.
I disliked that they never finished the storyline about the dead cop. It never received a conclusion.
