Horror fan (verified owner) –
The Door to December is exactly the kind of book that Koontz’s fans would expect from him, especially horror fans! And this is a good thing! Six years after she was abducted by her father when she was only three, little Melanie is found wandering the streets of Los Angeles. This happens on the same night that her mother, a child psychologist is summoned to the scene of a horrific murder by the police. The victim is Melanie’s father, who has beaten so savagely that the police, and Melanie’s mother, wonder if the killer is even human. Melanie’s mom is then led to the lab where the girl’s father worked, since he was a scientist. It’s in this room that the horrified woman discovers the full extent of the horrors her daughter was subjected to during the six years that she had been missing. From this point on, the story is about the nightmarish force that relentlessly hunts the men who forced Melanie to be the guinea pig for torturous experiments. It’s also the chilling tale of the efforts of Melanie’s mother, and a detective, to protect Melanie from that same horrifying, supernatural entity. I never saw the twist coming, the shocking explanation provided near the end of the book that explains what was happening throughout the story. Still, it was explanation I liked, for it made sense when you thought about the previous events that had unfolded. Once again, Koontz provides readers with an exciting, eerie story that’s full of suspense, terror, twists, surprises, romance, mystery, humor, warmth, and compassion. A wonderful book with an amazing plot and a good ending! Don’t miss it!
