About this ebook
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Welcome to the Pendleton. Built as a tycoon’s dream home in the 1880s and converted to luxury condominiums not quite a century later, the Gilded Age palace at the summit of Shadow Hill is a sanctuary for its fortunate residents. Scant traces remain of the episodes of madness, suicide, mass murder—and whispers of things far worse—that have scarred its grandeur almost from the beginning.
But now inexplicable shadows caper across walls, security cameras relay impossible images, phantom voices mutter in strange tongues, not-quite-human figures lurk in the basement, elevators plunge into unknown depths. With each passing hour a terrifying certainty grows: Whatever drove the Pendleton’s past occupants to their unspeakable fates is at work again. And as nightmare visions become real, as a deadly tide begins to engulf them, the people at 77 Shadow Street will find the key to humanity’s future . . . if they can survive to use it.
Includes the bonus novella The Moonlit Mind and an excerpt from Dean Koontz's The City.

I've been listening to this on audible and I've got about 4.5 hours left. I've been trying to finish this book for about 2 months. I can't seem to get into it, too many people, jumping from character to character, not really much happening even though I feel like so much more should have been going on. In a fan of mystery, especially supernatural stuff, but this, for me is way of the mark. Glad audible allows returns of any books you didn't like.

A Badass book.Koontz has done it again, once more he manages to grab you by the nuts and give you a bitchen ride. I hope he keeps on giving us more like this..

Dean is and always will be my favorite author. This is another shining example of why I own an exclusively "Dean Koontz" library in my home. At 42 years of age and an avid reader, I have yet to find another author who combines within his works of fantasy such real and amazing characters and heart felt lessons. Dean, god bless you and continue your "fighting of the good fight" in your own truely unique and wonderful way. Sincerely,
About the author
Dean Koontz, the author of many #1 New York Times bestsellers, lives in Southern California with his wife, Gerda, their golden retriever, Elsa, and the enduring spirit of their goldens, Trixie and Anna.
