250. Shattered by Dean R. Koont

BOOK REVIEW: Shattered by Dean R. Koontz

We have seen many cases of psycho killers in Malaysia and abroad, and even most recently Thailand where an army personnel opened fire in a shopping mall, putting down anyone in his path. The blood and the fear turns them on, placing them on a killer rampage devoid of meaning or reason.

How would it feel if an actual psychotic killer tracked you down and constantly tried to kill you every chance he had? Would you brave it out or succumb to his murderous intentions?

In Shattered, Alex and Colin are relocating to their new home. Alex's wife, Courtney is awaiting them in their new home. Little do Alex and Colin know that a man with murderous intentions is hot on their heels and won't stop till he achieves what he set out for.

George Leland finds Alex and Colin in the way to be with his girlfriend Courtney (his ex-girlfriend, now Alex's wife). His demented mindset believes that Courtney is still communicating and in love with him. His deranged self makes him go after the two human barriers to his imaginary love.

This thriller was a tidal wave of a read as it tossed me around in the psycho's mind, revealing a melange of horrifying thoughts that made me a spectator in the life of a psycho killer. Wonderfully written, with the requisite thrills and spills, I highly recommend this book to those who have a knack for the thriller genre.
