In a cavern called The House of Thunder, Susan Thorton watched in terror as her lover died a brutal death in a college hazing. And in the following four years, the four young men who participated in that grim fraternity rite also died violently. Or did they? Twelve years later Susan wakes in a hospital bed. Apparently involved in a fatal accident, she is suffering from amnesia. She doesn't remember who she is or why she is there. All she knows is that her convalescence is unfolding into a fearful nightmare - and that the faces that surround her, pretending loving care, are those of the four men involved in that murder years before. Have the dead come back to life? Or has Susan plunged into the abyss of madness? With the help of her neurosurgeon, Susan desperately clings to her sanity while fighting to uncover who or what could be stalking her...

About the Author:

Dean Koontz was born in Everett, Pennsylvania, and grew up in nearby Bedford. He won an Atlantic Monthly fiction competition when he was twenty and has been writing ever since. Mr. Koontz's books are published in 38 languages. Worldwide sales total more than 175 million copies, a figure that currently increases at a rate of more than 350 million copies a year. Dean and his wife, Gerda, live in southern California.

From AudioFile:
HereÕs a revival of an old Koontz thriller thatÕs worth listening to the second time around. Performed jointly by Laural Merlington and Mel Foster, this creepy story involves a woman who wakes up a partial amnesiac and canÕt remember anything about her job. Soon she begins to dream about her boyfriendÕs death years earlier, while his murderers appear to stalk her. The reading duo of Merlington and Foster is smooth together. First, they lull you into an almost peaceful state of mind, then they lower the boom--sending chills up your spine. Because of their delivery, you canÕt tell whatÕs imaginary from whatÕs real--until itÕs too late. A.L.H. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
