What this book is about
Former FBI agent Jane Hawk's husband died by suicide — except she knows he was murdered. Following the trail, she discovers a vast conspiracy using nanotechnology to turn people into obedient killing machines. Koontz's Jane Hawk series opener is propulsive, paranoid, and darker than his earlier work.
