In a captivating novel by Dean Koontz, the #1 New York Times bestselling master of suspense, humanity's last hope lies in the modern-day Lazarus. Michael Mace, the head of security at a top-secret research facility, finds himself in a makeshift morgue twenty-four hours after an event that claimed the lives of everyone, including his best friend, Shelby Shrewsberry. To honor his late friend, Michael embarks on a mission to help Nina Dozier and her son, John, whom Shelby greatly admired. However, his actions also draw the ire of Johns father, a member of one of the most violent street gangs in Los Angeles.

But a greater threat looms over them: the Internal Security Agency's most ruthless assassin, Durand Calaphas. Calaphas is determined to capture Michael at any cost, and if he dies twice, he will not survive a third time. The story takes readers from the tarnished glamour of Beverly Hills to the streets of South Central and onto a walled estate in Rancho Santa Fe. It is only through Michael's extraordinary abilities that he can protect Nina and John and ensure that light survives in a rapidly darkening world.

This novel is a testament to Dean Koontz's unparalleled ability to weave a tale of suspense and intrigue that keeps readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page. It is a must-read for fans of the genre and a reminder of the power of good and evil in the world.
