The Taking

Koontz, Dean   

For the citizens of a small California mountain town, the end of the world they have known arrives with a strange silvery rainstorm. As news of extreme weather conditions across the globe reaches the town, an ominous fog turns once familiar streets into a ghostly labyrinth. By evening, the town has lost all modes of communication, and a gathering of frightened neighbors senses a threat they cannot identify or imagine. In the night, strange noises arise and mysterious lights are seen drifting among the trees. The rain diminishes with the dawn but a moody gray-purple twilight prevails. Within the misty gloom, the small band will encounter something that reveals in a terrifying instant what is happening to the world - something that is hunting them with ruthless efficiency. Epic in scope, searingly intimate and immediate in its perspective, Dean Koontz´s THE TAKING is an adventure story like no other, a relentless roller-coaster ride that brings apocalypse to Main Street and showcases the talents of the modern master of suspense at the pinnacle of his powers.
