Our view

“From the Corner of His Eye” is a sprawling Dean Koontz thriller that braids the lives of a boy, a ruthless killer and a girl born of violence. Some readers enjoy the patient build-up of its characters but find the ending somewhat hurried. Over seven hundred pages give its many strands plenty of room, so it rewards readers happy to settle into a long story.
