I really enjoyed this story (even though there was no dragon 🐲). It caught my interest after only a few pages. But, I am a great Dean Coontz fan, can't wait to read them all. Then I will reread them as I wait for new ones. ♥️😊♥️, Dona USA

I've read many of Koontz's tales this is another one that makes me feel
like if I put it down something bad will surely happen.

I've read many of his books, but this one was simply spell-binding. Unable to put it down. Intense, memorable, full of insane suspense.
