He’s Hollywood’s most dazzling star, inspiring the worship of millions and the hatred of one twisted soul. His perfectly ordered existence is under siege as a series of terrifying “messages” penetrates the security of his legendary estate. All that stands between him and an insidious killer is a weary ex-cop who has already seen his own death.

Enter a world of marvelous invention, enchantment, and implacable intent, populated by murderous actors and the walking dead, hit men and heroes, long-buried dreams and never-dying hope. Dean Koontz takes readers on an unforgettable journey to the heart of darkness and to the pinnacle of grace, with a brilliantly observed chronicle of good and evil in our time, of illusion and everlasting truth.

Started out well, with a lot of suspense and an interesting premise, but I think Koontz tipped his hand a little too early. The major players were revealed halfway through and as it turns out there wasn't really much to figure out after that, so the rest of the book was boring.

Read better ones from Koontz. At times I had a feeling it was an early book of his (i.e. he seemed to close threads / justify events awkwardly). Still, a nice way to spend some free time.
