Amazingly prolific and relentlessly suspenseful, Dean Koontz can be counted on for chilling, sometimes gory stories that occasionally overlap genres. His novels can jump from straightforward crime to sci-fi to horror, but the one thing he's consistent about is delivering nail-biting yarns that have kept fans reading for more than three decades.
Past midnight, Chyna Shepherd, twenty-six, gazed out a moonlit window, unable to sleep on her first night in the Napa Valley home of her best friend's family. Instinct proves reliable. A murderous sociopath, Edgler Forman Vess, has entered the house, intent on killing everyone inside. Chyna is a survivor, toughened by a lifelong struggle for safety and self-respect. Now she will be tested as never before. At first her sole aim is to get out aliveuntil, by chance, she learns the identity of Vess's next intended victim, a faraway innocent only she can save. "Koontz's masterly pen once again builds the suspense to almost unbearable levels...Highly recommended." Library Journal
I found Intensity to be the best book that Koontz has written in quite some time. Great characters, great writing and a non-stop plot.
