Dragon Tears

I was truly scared. Had a very hard time putting this book down. Not much left to say without spoiling it for the next reader. Thanks again for sharing your talent Mr. Koontz!

Horror fans who love Dean Koontz’s brand of bizarre supernatural horror will delight in this strange and creepy tale of Harry Lyon, a detective who, hours after being forced to shoot and mortally wound a criminal, is approached by a vagrant who whispers to him these ominous words: “Ticktock, ticktock. You’ll be dead in sixteen hours. Dead by dawn... dead by dawn... dead by dawn...” What happens next will keep you on the edge of your seat as Lyon finds himself pitted against a supernaturally gifted killer who calls himself Ticktock because he grants victims only hours to live. Along with a female partner who seems a little too enthusiastic about embracing chaos, Lyon is in a race against time to catch Ticktock and discover his deadly secret before it’s too late! All of the trademark ingredients that have made Koontz a consistently bestselling master of suspense and horror are here: likable characters, an exceedingly creepy villain, terrifying suspense and action, kindness and sympathy, outrageous humor, unpredictable twists and turns, and most importantly to Koontz fans who are looking for a great horror story, pure terror with every chapter, if not every paragraph!
