Hideaway by Dean Koontz


Started: 4/24/06
Finished: 4/25/06
Pages: 413
Year: 1992
Genre: Horror/Thriller/Suspense
Grade: B+
Reason for reading: booksfree.com book, favorite author
Blurb (from inside page): "He was clinically dead after the accident-but was miraculously revived. Now Hatch Harrison and his wife, Lindsey, approach each day with a new appreciation of life...shadowed by his glimpse of death.
"Something has come back from the other side. A terrible presence that links Hatch's mind to a dangerous psychotic. A dark force of murderous rage that hides within us all..."
Opinion: I love Koontz and haven't really been disappointed by any of his books. My mother introduced me to him with Watchers. Several of his books do follow the good vs. evil general plot but does add interesting twists and turns. This edition has the newer afterword which talks about how people have hated this book and the reasons of why. I found that interesting and tried to not laugh about the irony of those letters. And, of course, any author who loves goldens is an A+ in my book.
