Synopsis

A haunting nightmare is the key to one woman's mysterious past in this spine-tingling novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz.

Alex Hunter knows that Joanna is not who she thinks she is, because he has seen her before--in photographs of a senator's daughter who disappeared twelve years ago. And there is only one way to unlock the dark secret of her soul...
