“As she climbed, her shoulder-slung purse banged against her hip and briefly got hooked on the long scissoring hinges from which the ladder was hung. She had lost the Coupe DeVille, all her luggage, her laptop, her career as a comedian, even her significant other—dear adorable green Fred—but she was damned if she’d give up her purse under any circumstances. It contained only a few dollars, breath mints, Kleenex, lipstick, compact, a hairbrush, nothing that would change her life if kept or destro...y it if lost, but supposing that she miraculously survived this visit to Casa O’Conner, she looked forward to freshening her lipstick and brushing her hair because at this dire moment, anyway, having the leisure to primp a little appealed to her as a delicious luxury on a par with limousines, presidential suites in five-star hotels, and Beluga caviar. Besides, if she had to die far too young with a brain full of nanomachines, because of a brain full of nanomachines, she wanted to leave as pretty a corpse as possible—assuming that she didn’t take a head shot that left her face as distorted as a portrait by Picasso.MoreLessRead More Read Less

I've enjoyed Dean Koontz books for many years and was pleased to find this site and this book. This was a great mystery, suspense, thriller and sci-fi world. I got lost in the wonderful hero characters and despised the Frankenstein doctor. I read a short story along time ago about nano technology even before they really started working on it. I believe this could possibly happen in some form or another. This is a exciting medical app but very scary at the same time. Wou!d make one hella movie.
