The House of Thunder (49)

The House of Thunder (49)
Dean Knoontz

This was a book originally released under a pen name, then later re-released under Knoontz own name. The story is good, but gets a bit tedious in the detail sometimes. Girl wakes up from a coma and finds that she doesnt remember much... soon details of her life come back, but she can not remember anything about her job.
When she was in college her boyfriend was killed in a hazing 'accident' she testifies against 4 people. 1 goes to jail, 2 others get killed some years later in a car accident and she loses track of the 4th.
**spoiler**
So she is very surpsied and frightened when she starts seeing these people in the hospital, especially the dead ones. The strange thing is, even through 13 years has passed the people look the same. She thinks she is going mad, until she starts to see cracks in the story...
The lead up to the story takes a bit long, then the conclusion is too fast... She learns she has been kidnapped by the Russians, she works for a defense contractor, and they are trying to find out information from her... The stay in the hospital was an elobrate rouge to make her break down so they could get information out of her.
Really intersting idea, and I wish he would have spent some more time on the ending and less on when she thought she was going crazy.
Overall a good book.. but certainly not one of his best.
