The Husband: a novel by Dean Koontz

First rate, July 30, 2006*****


Dean Koontz does it again. This is a first rate thriller which keeps you turning pages as the tension builds. Another original plot seizes you and keeps you enthralled. One of his best novels yet. I won't reveal the plot but your sympathies are with poor Mitch from the moment of the fateful phone call where the kidnapper demands $2 million in exchange for the return of his wife Holly. The plot twist involving his brother seems a bit farfetched but overall this is a sizzling read!
