Product Description(Amazon.com)
I see dead people. But then, by God, I do something about it. Odd Thomas never asked for his special ability. He’s just an ordinary guy trying to live a quiet life in the small desert town of Pico Mundo. Yet he feels an obligation to do right by his otherworldly confidants, and that’s why he’s won hearts on both sides of the divide between life and death. But when a childhood friend disappears, Odd discovers something worse than a dead body and embarks on a heart-stopping battle of will and wits with an enemy of exceptional cunning. In the hours to come there can be no innocent bystanders, and every sacrifice can tip the balance between despair and hope.

My Thoughts: Really good book as expected. Dean Koontz is a master at scary and mystery. Odd Thomas is up against woman that wants Odd's soul. She also has 2 goons that seem strange to Odd Thomas. They follow her orders without question. But Odd's mission this time is to save his childhood friend who is ill. But Odd Thomas has a lot to figure out and keep from getting killed while doing it. All this takes place in an abandoned Casino that has survived a fire and earthquake. It also has a few spirits to contend with. Will Odd Thomas survive this one? You'll have to read the book to find out.
Is this a series? I think I found my next read...I LOVE stories like this!
