The Mask

Description

Jane is a very good girl. But #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz shows that appearances can be deceiving—in a deadly way…

She appears out of nowhere, a beautiful teenage girl in the middle of traffic on a busy day. Paul and Carol Tracy are drawn to her—she’s the child they never thought they could have. But then Carol’s nightmares begin—the ghastly sounds in the night…the bloody face in the mirror…the razor-sharp ax.

Jane can’t remember her past. And as Carol attempts to help her uncover who she was, she has no idea of the horrors that await…“Koontz hones his fearful yarns to a gleaming edge.”—People
