Product Description

 
A airplane crash robs Los Angeles crime reporter Joe Carpenter of his happy life with his wife and two daughters, who perished in the accident. While visiting their graves, Carpenter spies a woman photographing the site and watches in horror as she is harassed by several toughs. He discovers that the mysterious woman is a genetic scientist who survived the crash, although her luck may be running out as a murderous corporation closes in on her in pursuit of a groundbreaking scientific discovery she has made. Was the plane crash a product of corporate acquisitiveness? Koontz has much to say on the subject of greed in this mystery cum sci-fi thriller.

Surviving This Ending is Tough

Date of Review:  Mar 7, 2000
Review: There's a lot ot be said for expectations ruining a story. Dean Koontz' "Sole Survivor" might have been enjoyable if I'd been expecting a science fiction novel or a supernatural thriller.

Certainly, the writing was terse and the plot was...

First Line

  At two-thirty Saturday morning, in Los Angeles, Joe Carpenter woke clutching a pillow to his chest, calling his lost wife's name in the darkness. The anguished and haunted quality of his own voice had shaken him from sleep. Dreams fell from him not all at once but in trembling veils, as attic dust falls off rafters when a house rolls with an earthquake.
