See all titles by Dean Koontz.With each and every new novel, Dean Koontz raises the stakes -- and
the pulse rate -- higher than any other author. Now, in what may be his
most suspenseful and heartfelt novel ever, he brings us the story of an
ordinary man whose extraordinary commitment to his wife will take him
on a harrowing journey of adventure, sacrifice, and redemption to the
mystery of love itself -- and to a showdown with the darkness that
would destroy it forever.
What would you do for love? Would you die? Would you kill?
We have your wife. You can get her back for two million cash.
Landscaper Mitchell Rafferty thinks it must be some kind of joke. He
was in the middle of planting impatiens in the yard of one of his
clients when his cell phone rang. Now he’s standing in a normal
suburban neighborhood on a bright summer day, having a phone
conversation out of his darkest nightmare.
Whoever is on the other end of the line is dead serious. He has
Mitch’s wife and he’s named the price for her safe return. The caller
doesn’t care that Mitch runs a small two-man landscaping operation and
has no way of raising such a vast sum. He’s confident that Mitch will
find a way.
If he loves his wife enough. . . Mitch does love her enough. He loves
her more than life itself. He’s got seventy-two hours to prove it. He
has to find the two million by then. But he’ll pay a lot more. He’ll
pay anything.
From its tense opening to its shattering climax, The Husband
is a thriller that will hold you in its relentless grip for every
twist, every shock, every revelation…until it lets you go, unmistakably
changed. This is a Dean Koontz novel, after all. And there’s no other
experience quite like it.
