About this ebook
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • This ebook edition contains a special preview of Dean Koontz’s The Silent Corner.
If you don’t take this note to the police . . . I will kill a lovely blond schoolteacher. . . . If you do . . . I will instead kill an elderly woman active in charity work. You have six hours to decide. The choice is yours.
The typewritten note under his windshield seems like just a sick joke. But in less than twenty-four hours, Billy Wiles, an ordinary, hardworking guy, is about to see his life take on the speed of a nightmare. Because a young blond schoolteacher is murdered—and now Billy has another note. And another deadline. This time he knows it’s no joke. He’s racing a killer faster than evil itself. And Billy must accept his terrifying challenge: The choice is yours.
Think fast. Fear never slows down. . . .

Edge of your seat, heart stopping, next to impossible to put down. Great book about how a man's life slowly escaping his control, wondering if he's losing his mind or actually going mad. All the while trying to keep his composure, in front of anyone he encounters, unsure if they're to be trusted.

What a ride of the mind. I could not put this one down. It kept me interested all the way and showed me the courage it takes to be in control of your own destiny no matter what the odds are against you.
