Full of elegy and resilient joy, these poems speak across generations of survival. How much of the world do we fear? How can we find comfort and ancestral power in this fear?"--

The Whispering Room
The second compulsive thriller featuring rogue FBI agent, Jane Hawk, from Dean Koontz - the master of suspense. Praise for The Silent Corner: 'The prose, as always in a Koontz novel, is first-rate. Perhaps Koontz's leanest, meanest thriller, this initial entry in a new series introduces a smart, appealing heroine who can outthink as well as outshoot the baddest of bad dudes.' Kirkus, starred review
