Shattered

Getting there is supposed to be half the fun, but #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz shows readers just how bad a cross-country trip can get...The van was in back of them again. Closer this time. There could be no mistake—they were being followed. But why? The question kept nagging at Alex and Colin as they left Philadelphia behind and sped toward their new home in San Francisco. Courtney would be waiting for them, ready to begin a wonderful new life with her husband, her brother...  Now, someone else is driving cross-country to see Courtney, too. Someone whose brain is rotting inside. Someone who knows their route, their stops, even their destination. And he won't rest until he finds them.

Publishers Weekly

“A chilling tale…sleek as a bullet!”

Chicago Sun-Times More Praise for Dean Koontz

“Catches you by the throat and won’t let go.”

The Seattle Times

“Dean Koontz is a prose stylist whose lyricism heightens malevolence and tension. [He creates] characters of unusual richness and depth.”

The New York Times Book Review

“Tumbling, hallucinogenic prose....‘Serious’ writers...might do well to examine his technique.”

Associated Press

“Lyrical writing and compelling characters...Koontz stands alone.”

Suspense Magazine

“In every industry there exist ‘artists’ that are not only unforgettable, but know their craft better than the rest. Dean Koontz...is among these artisans.”

Los Angeles Times

“[Koontz] has always had near-Dickensian powers of description, and an ability to yank us from one page to the next that few novelists can match.”

Publishers Weekly

“Perhaps more than any other author, Koontz writes fiction perfectly suited to the mood of America...novels that acknowledge the reality and tenacity of evil but also the power of good...[and that] entertain vastly as they uplift.”
