Synopsis

It's a year since Tina Evans lost her little boy Danny in a tragic accident, a year since she began the painful process of trying to rebuild her life. Then a shattering message appears on the blackboard in Danny's old room: NOT DEAD.

Is it someone's idea of a grim joke? Or the tangible evidence of her tormented unconscious? Or something more?

The search for an answer, the search for Danny, demands a courage and endurance beyond any that Tina thought she possessed. Only her love for her son, her love for the one man who believes her, drives her on, through the neon clamour of Las Vegas nightlife, the sun-scorched desert, and the frozen mountains of the High Sierra. People die, coldly, brutally, as a buried truth struggles to surface. A truth so incredible, so frightening, so dangerous that its secret must be kept at the price of any life - any man, any woman...any child.

About this title

Review:

Praise for Dean Koontz's novels: 'Koontz redefines suspense (The Times)

Koontz`s style bleaches out clichés while showing a genius for detail (Publishers Weekly)

Koontz's art is making the reader believe the impossible... sit back and enjoy it (Sunday Telegraph)

A master of the thriller genre (Washington Post)

Scary. Koontz can really spook, and his dialogue and pacing rival the best (New York Post)

Fast and furious...like a hospital trolley on a toboggan run (Mail on Sunday)

Tumbling, hallucinogenic prose... "Serious" writers might do well to examine his technique. The story does not move so much as rocket up the gloomy highway with the reader in violent pursuit (New York Times)

Book Description:

A mother's deepest desire - or worst nightmare - comes true when she receives messages that her dead son might still be alive
