Excellent story ( ) Una resbaladiza carretera de montaña en plena noche; un camión mal situado, un patinazo y una caída hacia las heladas aguas del río que corre más abajo. Hatch y Lindsey no podían haber imaginado nada peor para el fin de semana que habían decidido dedicar a replantear su matrimonio, en crisis desde la muerte de su único hijo. Cuando todo parece perdido, los rescatan. Hatch está muerto; Lindsey aterida y confusa. Los trasladan al hospital del doctor Nyebern, un experto en reanimación. El doctor, mediante un revolucionario sistema de reciclado de sangre, consigue devolver a Hatch a la vida. Así se convierte en uno de los pocos afortunados que ha traspasado el umbral que separa la vida y la muerte en los dos sentidos. Pero alguien más cruzó el umbral cuando el doctor reanimó a Hatch, alguien procedente del tenebroso más allá. A re-read for me. A man resuscitated long after death awakens with a strange connection to a killer. People often criticise Koontz for too often having religious themes in his books and this is certainly one of those, though an earlier and better example. If one is to read a supernatural thriller regardless of faith, then there must be some leeway for this, although any author can use a recurring theme too often at the risk of work sounding stale. Despite rolling my eyes a time or two, especially once toward the end, I’m giving this book a high mark for its tension, and excellently conceived and solid plot. I felt the book was a little overlong, but not to the point of frustration. Hideaway is a typical horror story pitting good against evil with some interesting twists. Mr. Koontz's writing is always engaging, and the beginning chapters describing the car accident and aftermath are riveting, but the rest of the book has no surprises. The half-dead monster, Vassago, that trolls through the deserted funhouse, the brilliant, driven doctor that resuscitates dead bodies, and the innocent child with the spunky sense of humor are very reminiscent of his previous novels. I guess I was hoping for something extraordinary but it just wasn't there. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

He was clinically dead after the accident - but was miraculously revived. Now Hatch Harrison and his wife approach each day with a new appreciation for life. But something has come back with Hatch from the other side. A terrible presence that links his mind to a psychotic's, so that a force of murderous rage courses through him.
