  <default-description>From the #1 &lt;i&gt;New York Times&lt;/i&gt; bestselling master of suspense comes a riveting thriller that &lt;br&gt;probes the deepest terrors of the human psyche&amp;#8212;and the ineffable mystery of what truly makes us who we are. Here an innocent man finds himself fighting for his very existence in a battle that starts with the most frightening words of all&amp;#8230;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/b&gt;At thirty-four, Internet entrepreneur Ryan Perry seemed to have the world in his pocket&amp;#8212;until the first troubling symptoms appeared out of nowhere. Within days, he&amp;#8217;s diagnosed with incurable cardiomyopathy and finds himself on the waiting list for a heart transplant; it&amp;#8217;s his only hope, and it&amp;#8217;s dwindling fast. Ryan is about to lose it all&amp;#8230;his health, his girlfriend, Samantha, and his life.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;One year later, Ryan has never felt better. Business is good and there&amp;#8217;s even a chance of getting Samantha back in his life. Then the unmarked gifts begin to arrive in the mail&amp;#8212;a heart pendant, a box of Valentine candy hearts. And, most disturbing of all, a graphic heart surgery video accompanied by a chilling message: &lt;i&gt;Your heart belongs to me.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt;In a heartbeat, the medical miracle that gave Ryan a second chance at life is about to become a curse worse than death. For Ryan is being stalked by a mysterious woman who feels entitled to everything he has. She&amp;#8217;s the spitting image of the twenty-eight-year-old donor of the heart beating steadily in Ryan&amp;#8217;s own chest.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And she&amp;#8217;s come to take it back.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/b&gt;</default-description>

    <body><![CDATA[This is a very readable book, like most of Koontz's novels. Although I love a mystery, the theme of the book made me uneasy (as it did with another author's book, &quot;Heartsick,&quot; also briefly reviewed on my pages.)<br/><br/>The main character is neither likeable or unlikeable, and that may ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/44140384">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[What to say about this book...?  It is Dean Koontz, so morality and goodness and the glory of dogs are all a part of the story.  There is mystery and supernatural components.  There are nefarius characters and just weak, human ones. There are also wonderful, near saintly characters.  <br/><br/>I g...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/43690856">more...</a>]]></body>
