The Silent Corner

A Novel of Suspense

De: Dean Koontz

Narrado por: Elisabeth Rodgers

A dazzling new series debuts with a remarkable heroine certain to become a new icon of suspense, propelled by the singular narrative genius of New York Times best-selling author Dean Koontz.

"I very much need to be dead."

These are the chilling words left behind by a man who had everything to live for - but took his own life. In the void that remains stands his widow, Jane, surrounded by questions destined to go unanswered...unless she does what all the grief, fear, confusion, and fury inside of her demand: find the truth, no matter what.

There is no one else to speak for Jane's husband - or the others who have followed him into death at their own hands. Although people of talent and accomplishment, people admired and happy and sound of mind, have recently been committing suicide in surprising numbers, no one else is willing to give up everything just to seek, to find, to know. No one except Jane. But ahead lies only risk. Because those arrayed against her are legion...and dangerously devoted to protecting something profoundly important - or terrifying - enough to exterminate any and all in their way.

Too many have already died, and those responsible will learn that all their malevolent power may not be enough to stop a woman as clever as they are cold-blooded, as relentless as they are ruthless - and who is driven by a righteous rage they can never comprehend. Because it is born of love.

Koontz manages a different tale of horror with panache

Koontz will never leave his horror or macabre roots. This tale is one of terror if you allow yourself to realize its basis is in reality. The horror he illustrates is one not far removed from our doorsteps. He takes it to the next level with a divinely driven heroine couples her with a protagonist and they play superbly off each other. It is a tale of horror of power mad men, frankensteinian doctors, a deep state government that is governing for a New World Order. This orwellian story out does Orwell!!! Truly a great listen or a good read. Thanks Dean.

loved it

as always another great by Mr Koontz.
good vs evil. suspense, love of family.
excited for the next

Loved it.

Dark and entertaining. A little different than some of his other books but keeps you hooked and on the edge of your seat.

Great story...

I really enjoyed the new Koontz. I thought the narrator did a great job! I'm looking forward to the next in the series.

interesting but not enough to get me to the next

semi interesting storyline but not enough to get your hooks into. Really poor performance, as every character sounded the same.

Dean Koontz always delivers

I really enjoyed the story and characters. on to the next book in this series.

Dean Koontz is the Best

I love Dean Koontz and his ability to keep my turning the page, always in suspense, waiting for the next twist or turn! His writing style keeps me coming back and I'll definitely be finishing the entire Jane Hawk series!

I really wish there was a different narrator, it almost made it hard to keep going, but the story kept me in to it. She lacks the depth and expressive tones of some other narrators. Maybe the other books, she will get better?!

Ended waaaaaaaay too soon, unsatisfactory cliff hanging ending!

Got hooked immediately, but left hanging for an acceptable resolution...better be a second in this series or I may never read him again!!!

Can’t tolerate narrator’s voice

Unfortunately I couldn’t tolerate the narrator’s character voices & asked for a refund. Her regular voice is quite nice but the character voices are terrible. I love Dean Koontz and found the story interesting. I’ll purchase in book form.

Always a Dean Koontz enjoyment!

A bit different from some of his others, but just as riveting and thought provoking. Loved it!
