Secret Forest

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz, an edgy, gripping new stand-alone novel featuring Ivy Elgin, a character from his bestselling novel Velocity (2005) who has inspired more reader mail than any Koontz character other than Odd Thomas.

Ivy Elgin played a minor role in Dean Koontz's New York Times bestselling novel Velocity, but this mysterious beauty captured the imagination of legions of readers, who have clamored for her return ever since. Narrated by haunted loner Tucker Padgett, Secret Forest is Ivy's book, at once a gripping tale of suspense, a darkly magical quest centered on the deep mysteries of the natural world, and an unforgettable love story. A twisting narrative infused with beauty and complexity, this new novel from Koontz showcases his "near-Dickensian" skill (Los Angeles Times) that has earned him the distinction of "master of the psychological drama" (USA Today).
