About the Book:

A modern-day Lazarus is humanity’s last hope in a breathtaking novel about the absolute powers of good and evil by Dean Koontz, the #1 New York Times bestselling master of suspense.

Michael Mace, head of security at a top-secret research facility, opens his eyes in a makeshift morgue twenty-four hours following an event in which everyone perished―including him and his best friend, Shelby Shrewsberry.

Having awakened with an extraordinary ability unlike anything he―or anyone else―has ever imagined, Michael is capable of being as elusive as a ghost. He sets out to honor his late friend by helping Nina Dozier and her son, John, whom Shelby greatly admired. Although what Michael does for Nina is life changing, his actions also evoke the wrath of John’s father, a member of one of the most violent street gangs in Los Angeles.

But an even greater threat is descending: the Internal Security Agency’s most vicious assassin, Durand Calaphas. Calaphas will stop at nothing to get his man. If Michael dies twice, he will not live a third time.

From the tarnished glamour of Beverly Hills to the streets of South Central to a walled estate in Rancho Santa Fe, only Michael can protect Nina and John―and ensure that light survives in a rapidly darkening world.

Reviews:

“America’s most popular suspense novelist.” ―Rolling Stone

“Koontz has always had near-Dickensian powers of description and an ability to yank us from one page to the next that few novelists can match.” ―Los Angeles Times

“Tumbling, hallucinogenic prose.” ―New York Times Book Review

“Dean Koontz is not just a master of our darkest dreams but also a literary juggler.” ―The Times (London)

“Dean Koontz writes page-turners, middle-of-the-night-sneak-up-behind-you suspense thrillers. He touches our hearts and tingles our spines.” ―Washington Post Book World

“Koontz has a knack for making the bizarre and uncanny seem as commonplace as a sunrise. Bottom line: the Dean of Suspense.” ―People magazine

“Positively twitching with suspense. Another sure-fire hit from a thriller master.” ―Booklist (starred review)

“If Stephen King is the Rolling Stones of novels, Koontz is the Beatles.” ―Playboy

“A superb plotter and wordsmith. He chronicles the hopes and fears of our time in broad strokes and fine detail, using popular fiction to explore the human condition [and] demonstrating that the real horror of life is found not in monsters but within the human psyche.” ―USA Today

“Far more than a genre writer. Characters and the search for meaning, exquisitely crafted, are the soul of his work. This is why his novels will be read long after the ghosts and monsters of most genre writers have been consigned to the attic. One of the master storytellers of this or any age.” ―Tampa Tribune

“Dean Koontz almost occupies a genre of his own. He is a master at building suspense and holding the reader spellbound.” ―Richmond Times-Dispatch

“Demanding much of itself, Koontz’s style bleaches out clichés while showing a genius for details. He leaves his competitors buried in the dust.” ―Kirkus Reviews

“Another A-plus thriller from a writer on a serious winning streak.” ―Booklist (starred review)
