Description:
On the morning that will mark the end of the world they have known…
Molly and Neil Sloan wake to find an eerily luminous downpour drenching their small Californian mountain town. As the rain continues to fall, TV pictures relay disturbing news of extreme weather phenomena across the globe.
With the evening comes a ghostly fog. Their sense of isolation is complete when first TV and radio, then the internet and phone lines go dead. Molly and Neil gather with neighbours, sensing an awful danger approaching with the night…It's like a scary movie made real. But what is really happening? Is it science gone wrong or a technology beyond human understanding?
Or something deeper, more fundamental. Something to do with fate and purpose.
Something that won't have a Hollywood ending.

I enjoyed this story! So far Koontz has never been a disappointment to me.
While reading this story I kept thinking that why the ”ETs” in scifi books are nearly always described hostile, with no good intensions at all??

The Extra-Terrestial intruders in this story seem also to come with hostile intentions causing the reader many scary and thrilling moments. Koontz really manages to wipe away almost all hope. I do not want to spoil the story from possible future readers. I only tell that the ending was at least to me surprising! It was really clever and something that I could even welcome to happen. It was of course hostile but also a new start and a possibility to the Mankind.

Thank you once again Juliannedavies for giving me this book!
