Title: A Real Thriller
Review: The only flaw the book has: it is a little bit too long. The time it takes before the plot gets under way may be the time when some impatient people stop reading and turn to another book. But from then on, let us say from page 150 , this novel is excellent. The characters are very well developed, the plot foreseeable as the author works with dramatic irony from the start, but the suspense does not feed on the question: What will happen? but on: How will the characters get out of this mess? or: Will this villain be punished after all? And Koontz manages to give the plot some nice unexpected twists that keeps your interest alive.What is always enjoyable in Koontz' books is his expertise in dogs, especially in golden retrievers. I have never had dogs, but in some of his novels I really got to like them. His dog characters are a treat in itself.
