Pages: 400
Year: 2006
Genre: Suspense
Grade: B+
Reason for reading: asked to review for My Shelf, plus he's my favorite author
Blurb (from back cover): "We have your wife. You can get her back for two million cash. On an ordinary afternoon, an ordinary man gets a phone call out of his worst nightmare. The caller is dead serious. He doesn't care that Mitch can't raise that kind of money. He's confident that Mitch will find a way. If he loves his wife enough...
"Mitch does love her enough. He loves her mrore than life itself. He's got sixty hours to prove it. He has to find the two million by then. But he'll pay a lot more. He'll pay anything.
"From its tense opening to its shattering climax. The Husband is a thriller that will hold you in its relentless grip for every twist, every shock every revelation. This is a Dean Loontz novel, after all. And ther's no other experience quite like it."
Opinion: Koontz is back. Awesome book. Lots of great twists and turns. Definitely keeps the reader entertained. I certainly didn't want to the book to end. A definite.
