Breathless

About this book

On a still September afternoon in the Colorado Rockies, Grady Adams and his giant Irish wolfhound, Merlin, stumble on something no one should be able to see: two playful, snow-white creatures that are neither dog nor cat, and unlike any animal Grady has known in these mountains. The light turns strange, the forest falls silent, and the feeling of being watched follows man and dog all the way home. In the same wilderness, veterinarian Dr. Camillia "Cammy" Rivers is still grieving her beloved golden retriever when she opens her clinic to two dozen rescued puppy-mill dogs. Two lives are about to be drawn together by a mystery that is part wonder and part menace. Dean Koontz, a master of suspense, combines mountain-country atmosphere, devoted animal companions and a creeping sense of the uncanny in this fast-moving, 149-chapter novel. Fans of Koontz's Odd Thomas books, and readers who love a thriller with heart and a touch of science fiction, will find it hard to put down.
