If you delight in the suspense of Stephen King and The Stranger by Harlan
Coben chilled you to the bone (in the best possible way), you'll love Winter
Moon - the classic thriller by Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling
author Dean Koontz. 'Not just a master of our darkest dreams but also a
literary juggler' - The Times. Eduardo is a lonely retiree living on his
isolated Montana ranch. His life is peaceful, until one night he is awakened
by a fearful throbbing sound and eerie lights in the woods. More mysterious
and disturbing events follow over the next few months. Eduardo begins to fear
for his sanity and his life, until the terrible night when someone - or
something - knocks on his back door...One lovely spring morning in Los
Angeles, cop Jack McGarvey is hammered by submachine-gun fire when a madman
goes berserk. He barely survives. Jack longs to move his wife and son to a
more peaceful place away from the city, but he feels utterly powerless and
without prospects. In their hour of desperation, the McGarvey family receives
an unexpected inheritance in the shape of a sprawling ranch in one of the most
beautiful, peaceful places in the country: Montana. The family sets out from
Los Angeles to begin their new life, unaware that the terror-riddled city will
soon seem like a safe haven compared to what lies ahead. WINTER MOON is
inspired by the author's short novel, INVASION, published under the pseudonym
Aaron Wolfe.
