On an impulse, schoolteacher Jim Ironheart flies to Portland, Oregon without understanding why. There he saves a boy from being killed by a drunk driver and is observed by Holly Thorne.

Good condition. It's not my favorite Koontz book, but makes a good read. I didn't figure out the source of the "problem" until almost the end of the book, and even then I was surprised by the end.

This is definitely not the best Koontz novel. I didn't really like the characters as much as his other notable ones. As for the story, it was interesting and bizarre. It's worth reading, but don't expect much compared to Koontz's other novels.

Interesting book, but a little out there. I did figure out what was going on partway through the book, which is always fun.

In Portland he saved a young boy for a drunk driver. In Boston he rescued a child from an underground explosion. In Houston he disarmed a man who was trying to shoot his own wife. Reporter Holly Thorne was intrigued by this strange quiet savior named Jim Ironheart - but what power compelled an ordinary man to save twelve lives in three months? What visions haunted his dreams? And why did he whisper in his sleep "There is an Enemy. It is coming. It'll kill us all..."
