Publisher's summary

Only three years old, little Melanie was kidnapped by her father. Six years later, police found her wandering the L.A. streets, her eyes blank. What had become of her in all that lost time...and what secret did she dare not even whisper?

Her loving mother and the police desperately hunt for the answer. They need Melanie to help discover the truth behind the most savage carnage the city has ever seen. They will do anything to save her from the mysterious and menacing force that has invaded her young life. But first they must save themselves from a rising tide of terror.

Great read!!

This is my favorite of Dean's books. The story is interesting and exciting. Any book or novel including children is compelling and this novel is one of them.

If you like stranger things....you’ve gotta try this! Creepy, thrilling, and it keeps moving.

Koontz at His Best!

Excellent reading by Mr. Guidall of a story that rocks the soul! Who knows what happens in those unknown places by those unknown scientists...in the real world!

Great characters. Great narration.

Scary. Intense. Guidall is awesome as always. Haven't read or listened to Koontz in awhile, and I wasn't disappointed.
