Bestselling novelist Cullen "Cubby" Greenwich's book is an across-the-board triumph – except for the vicious, inaccurate remarks by the much-feared, seldom-seen critic, Shearman Waxx, in the nation's premier newspaper. Cubby knows he should ignore the review. His wife, Penny, a children's book author and illustrator, knows it. Their brilliant six-year-old, Milo, affectionately dubbed "Spooky," knows it. Even their non-collie, Lassie, seems to know it.
Cubby only wants to get a look at the mysterious recluse whose mere opinion can make or break a career – or a life. But Shearman Waxx isn't what Cubby expects; and neither is the escalating terror that follows what seemed to be an innocent encounter. For Waxx has ways of dealing with those who cross him that Cubby is only beginning to fathom. Soon the likeable family man finds himself in a desperate struggle with a relentless sociopath. And just when things can't seem to get any worse, he and those he loves are introduced to the mother of all evil in a character only Dean Koontz could invent: Sherman's mom.

This to me was somewhat of a dissapointment. I usually love Koontz and all his great books like Odd Thomas but something happened here. He really had a poorly put together story. The husband and wife team with the gifted kid just did not seem at all real. The characters were so Leave it to Beaver that it almost dripped in honey. Just okay, not great. I hope he puts more effort into his next book.
