And now the fourth Dean Koontz book that I've been reading for the past few days is now complete tonight! "The Darkest Evening of the Year" is that novel.
We meet Amy Redwing, a woman who has devoted her entire life to rescuing dogs. But there is a unique bond that she shares with a golden retriever named Nickie, a dog she had saved in a very dangerous encounter, one that is really deep.
But in one night, this loyalty will be put to the test, and they will prove to each other how far they can go–even when the stakes turn deadly.
This one's pretty similar to another Koontz novel "Hideaway", as it is a thriller mixed with the supernatural. It might not be as original as one would think, but I still found it pretty decent enough to find it enjoyable.
Koontz has written a lot, with some being either great or really decent, and "The Darkest Evening of the Year" fits into the decent category. Most would say that his writing has become repetitive, but for me they're still enjoyable. Not really deep, but incredibly satisfying. And now that I've had my quota of Koontz for now, it's time to move on to another book by a different author, or authors in this case, as this one is written by two authors.
