What the Night Knows Dean Koontz

Police officer Kirby Wayland is on his way home late one day when he sees a stray dog along the highway – a Belgian sheepdog with no collar – so he brings it home for the night. From that moment on, Kirby experiences a continuing strangeness about this canine. Man and dog quickly develop a bond, though there is always something very unsettling about it. Kirby, against the advice of colleagues and friends, takes a six-month leave from the police force and decides, entirely on intuition, to take a road trip. Where? Why? Kirby says, "I don't know. I think…I think that's up to the dog. " On the road, Kirby and the dog – who by now has acquired the Ahab – have a series of rapidly escalating adventures and enter on a hair-raising quest that will ultimately have enormous emotional effect as the truth of the situation brings breathtaking revelations. New York Times #1 bestselling author Dean Koontz' latest novel will be sure to entice and thrill his legions of fans, who already can't wait for its release.
