    <body><![CDATA[Is Dean Koontz a bereaved parent?  His understanding of grief after the loss of a child and his depiction of Compassionate Friends is accurate.  The book itself is a little creepy and icky, it is a little long-winded, but overall has a positive ending, if one can put the boy in the sub-basement out ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/44514000">more...</a>]]></body>
