Title: He should have warned us
Review: I love Dean Koontz' work. I own and have read almost everything he has written; but as a victim of brutal childhood sexual abuse, and being currently under the care of a psychiatrist to deal with issues related to that abuse, and having not been believed by my parents, I never made it through this one. It was a brilliant story, and he portrayed the horror and shame of sexual abuse from the victim's point of view masterfully, but it was more than I, and I dare say most people who have actually experienced abuse, could handle. Next time, please, warn us when there will be rape and/or other sexual abuse (that may re-open old wounds we aren't quite ready to deal with yet) graphically and repeatedly used in a story line. I'm looking forward to his NEXT book.
