Intensity: Dean Koontz
$5.00Chyna Shepherd, twenty-six, had a dark childhood which taught her to fear strange houses, and she cannot sleep on this first night in the home of her college friend Laura. A muffled scream from another room alarms her. A homicidal sociopath, Edgler Vess, is intent on killing everyone in the house. Life has taught Chyna to be a survivor but this will be her greatest test. A series of strange developments find her in Vess's motorhome - a dungeon and morgue on wheels - without him being aware of her presence. Vess lives only to satisfy his every appetite, to seek ever more outrageous experience, to immerse himself in sensation - to live with intensity. At first Chyna's only goal is to get out alive. But when she learns the identity of Vess's next victim and realises that only she can save that precious life, she must face the fact that a moral life requires acceptance of unwanted responsibilities. She must find courage and take risks beyond any she imagined she could endure. -

Micky Bellsong makes the wrong choices, particularly in men; her life has no meaning or direction. She wants to change and doesn't know how. She has moved in temporarily with her aunt who lives in a dusty trailer park on the far edge of the Californian dream. There she meets Leilani, a dazzling nine year old with a leg brace, a deformed hand and a great spirit. Leilani's strange stepfather, Preston Maddoc, claims to have had a vision that aliens will either heal the girl by her tenth birthday or take her away to their world where she will have a better life. When Micky learns that Leilani had an older brother, who was also deformed and that he has now 'gone to the stars' she suspects that Maddoc killed the boy when a previous vision of healing aliens was not fulfilled. Leilani seems fearful...then the Maddocs disappear. No-one seems to care that Leilani may be dead by her tenth birthday - no-one except Micky. She sets out to find the Maddocs, for the first time caring about someone other than herself - and finds herself pitted against a fearsome, cunning adversary.
