Kristin Burns is making her way in New York City. Her photos are being considered at a major Manhattan gallery, she works by day with two wonderful children, and the man of her dreams is almost hers for keeps. But just as everything she's ever wanted is finally within reach, her life changes forever--with one murderous nightmare. Kristin wakes up every morning from the same chilling, unforgettable dream. And suddenly, it's visiting her during the day too. As her life turns stranger by the minute, Kristin is haunted and terrified. Is it all in her head? Or is the nightmare becoming her life? Kristin searches desperately for what's real through the lens of her camera, only knowing two things for sure: that no place is safe and the fate of everyone she loves lies in her hands.

Summary: excruciatingly bad
Comment: I had just read a couple of the Patterson/Roughan books which were trashy and unbelievable but kinda fun in that trashy-unbelievable way (how does Roughan figure in anyway -- does he type?), and I picked this up at the library.
Let's just say if a large cockroach (bad foreshadowing vis a vis this book) got onto a computer and typed out some words, it would be better than this astonishingly bad tripe. Page after page, I gasped aloud "This is so terrible." Virtually nothing makes sense, the few red herrings there are pay off less than nothing (or rather they aren't ever even referenced again), the only character with any substance is the "Pencil"-thin society wife, characters arrive and disppear with virtually no sense or payoff.
The good news is that it's so bad you can't stop reading it because you can't believe anything is so poorly written. The other good news is that this will take you about three hours, or less, to read. How a reputable publisher could begin to retail something like this for $27.99 is beyond belief.....The only thing you have to be warned about is reading "You've Been Warned."

Summary: Very disappointing ending.
Comment: I was very disappointed when I reached the end of this book. It was very easy to read and follow. There were so many interesting and strange things that happened to the main character, that I couldn't wait to have them explained. Only to be left hanging at the end. This book is a waste of time.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Utter garbage.
Comment: I'm a huge James Patterson fan, but this particular book was a complete waste not only of the purchase price, but of the time I spent reading it.
Hard to believe that Patterson would sully his great name with such utter garbage.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Adding to the warnings
Comment: I used to like Patterson - his first few Alex Cross novels were great. But this book is awful. Kristin is cardboard and stupid, none of the characters are likable, the events are goofy, and even the sex scenes have no finesse or eroticism. If you haven't bought the book, don't. If you have, well, maybe you can get two bits for it at your next garage sale.
Customer Rating:
Summary: REALLY SCARY
Comment: I found this to be be one scary book. I almost finished it last night. I couldn't though because it was dark. I am a huge fan of Koontz and this read is truly in competition with Koontz's most terrifying. I was sorry to see some of the not so great reviews because I loved the storyline, cast and pace of it. Better read during the daylight.
