Dylan O'Conner, a young man, and Jilly Jarvis, a stand-up comedian, are two people who cross paths after a stranger injects them with a mysterious substance. Dylan is travelling with his autistic brother Shep, whose talent for music and mathematics leads him to take part in the story. Dean Koontz builds a thriller in which the three are chased, and they find that the injection has changed them. The plot moves across the American Southwest and combines suspense, humor and a bit of science fiction.
It's for readers who like fast-paced thrillers with a kind-hearted tone. Fans of Koontz will find his familiar mix of danger and warmth.
Practical, clear-cut and escapist; an easy read.
