Book description
When Dylan O'Conner, together with his autistic brother, Shepherd,
pulls into a motel off the interstate highway, all he wants is a good
night's sleep. Yet within the hour he finds himself bound, gagged and
being injected with a mysterious fluid by a lunatic doctor, who claims
Dylan will be the carrier of 'his life's work'. Comedian Jillian Jackson
is midway through a tour of seedy venues, accompanied by her pet
pot-plant Fred. But her plans for stardom are dramatically altered when
she too falls victim to the eccentric scientist. The doctor warns his
victims that he is being pursued and that they too are now targets. If
they are caught, they will be killed. Both are sceptical. Before long,
they are beginning to wonder if the lunatic doctor wasn't quite so mad
after all. 'Koontz's art is making the reader believe the
impossible... sit back and enjoy it' Dean Koontz is the author of 58
