In the aftermath, his widow, Jane Hawk, does what all her grief, fear, and fury demand: find the truth, no matter what. <p/> People of talent and accomplishment, people admired and happy and sound of mind, have been committing suicide in surprising numbers. When Jane seeks to learn <i>why</i>, she becomes the most-wanted fugitive in America. Her powerful enemies are protecting a secret so important--so terrifying--that they will exterminate anyone in their way. <p/> But all their power and viciousness may not be enough to stop a woman as clever as they are cold-blooded, as relentless as they are ruthless--and who is driven by a righteous rage they can never comprehend. Because it is born of love. <p/><b>Look for a special preview of Dean Koontz's next Jane Hawk novel, <i>The Whispering Room, </i> in the back of the book.</b> <p/><b>Don't miss any of Dean Koontz's gripping Jane Hawk thrillers: </b><br><b>THE SILENT CORNER - THE WHISPERING ROOM - THE CROOKED STAIRCASE</b> <p/><b>Praise for <i>The Silent Corner</i></b> <p/>"Gripping . . .
