THE HUSBAND by Dean Koontz

 THE HUSBAND by Dean Koontz

What would you do for love?
Would you die?  Would you Kill?

"So we have your wife, You get her back for 2 million cash."

Landscape gardener Mitchell Rafferty thinks it must be some kind of joke.  He was busy planting flower beds for one of his clients when his phone rang.  Now he's standing in a normal suburban neighbourhood on a bright summer day having a phone conversation out of his darkest nightmare.  Whoever is on the other end of the line is dead serious?  Rifle fire shatters the stillness as the man goes down,. shot in the head.  An object lesson.

The caller doesn't car that Mitch has no way of raising such a vast sum/  He's confident that Mitch will find a way.  If he loves his wife enough

Mitch does love her enough.  He's got sixty hours to prove it.  He'll pay anything.  He'll pay a lot more than two million dollars.

From the master storyteller comes a story of love, tenacity and courage with the pace of a runaway train.  The Husband is a thriller that holds the reader in its relentless grip from its tense opening to its shattering climax.
