Product Description

 
Bill Wile is an easygoing, hardworking guy who leads a quiet, ordinary life. But that is about to change. One evening, after his usual eight-hour bartending shift, he finds a typewritten note under the windshield wiper of his car.

If you don't take this note to the police and get them involved, I will kill a lovely blond schoolteacher. If you do take this note to the police, I will instead kill an elderly woman active in charity work. You have four hours to decide. The choice is yours.

It seems like a sick joke, and Bill's friend on the police force, Lanny Olson, thinks so too. His advice to Bill is to go home and forget about it. Besides, what could they do even if they took the note seriously? No crime has actually been committed. But less than 24 hours later, a young blond schoolteacher is found murdered, and it's Bill's fault: he didn't convince the police to get involved. Now he's got another note, another deadline, another ultimatum...and two new lives hanging in the balance.

Suddenly Bil

Velocity is Koontz' Best Work So Far!

Date of Review:  Jun 15, 2006
The Bottom Line: Velocity is a surprisingly great read from author Dean Koontz. I highly recommend it!
Review: My father recently read Velocity by Dean Koontz and he said it was really weird, but he just couldn t stop reading it. I ve read Koontz before and I always thought his books were somewhat simple and mediocre. Velocity has changed my mind completely...
