With each of his #1 New York Times bestsellers, Dean Koontz has displayed an unparalleled ability to entertain and enlighten readers with novels that capture the essence of our times even as they bring us to the edge of our seats. Now he delivers a heart-gripping tour de force he’s been waiting years to write, at once a love story, a thrilling adventure, and a masterwork of suspense that redefines the boundaries of primal fear—and of enduring devotion.

Amy Redwing has dedicated her life to the southern California organization she founded to rescue abandoned and endangered golden retrievers. Among dog lovers, she’s a legend for the risks she’ll take to save an animal from abuse. Among her friends, Amy’s heedless devotion is often cause for concern. To widower Brian McCarthy, whose commitment she can’t allow herself to return, Amy’s behavior is far more puzzling and hides a shattering secret.

No one is surprised when Amy risks her life to save Nickie, nor when she takes the female golden into her home. The bond between Amy and Nickie is immediate and uncanny. Even her two other goldens, Fred and Ethel, recognize Nickie as special, a natural alpha. But the instant joy Nickie brings is shadowed by a series of eerie incidents. An ominous stranger. A mysterious home invasion.

And the unmistakable sense that someone is watching Amy’ s every move and that, whoever it is, he’s not alone.

Someone has come back to turn Amy into the desperate, hunted creature she’s always been there to save. But now there’s no one to save Amy and those she loves. From its breathtaking opening scene to its shocking climax, The Darkest Evening of the Year is Dean Koontz at his finest, a transcendent thriller certain to have readers turning pages until dawn.

Poor Ending. Great book but poor ending. I had to read it twice to make sure I didn’t miss a chapter.

Great Read. One of my favorite books!! Would highly recommend this book.

NoBrainerToMe

Darkest Evening. Even though it was typical Koontz novel it was touching. He, again, focused on golden retrievers, but he expanded into the magic mystery behind their eyes. He always gives you some information that you would never think of, this time I learned about light houses! Good job Dean. Looking forward to the next one.

Alright. I gave up on Koontz early in the 90s. He writing style seemed choppy to me as if written by a formulaic algorithm designed to write coherent stories but, instead, included discordant and nonsensical passages. I feel nothing has changed. There are too many things in this story that should have been revised or omitted altogether. Convolution is not entertaining, rather discordant and dismissive of the reader’s time and intellect.
