Očekivani životni vijek

Dean R. Koontz

Anyone who has read Dean Koontz's novels knows that his novels are hard to put down, and this one about the life of an innocent family who cannot escape the fate foretold to them by their ancestor long ago is no exception.

Just moments before his birth, Jimmy Tock is thrust into an unusual fate. His dying grandfather utters a prophecy of five dark days in the life of his unborn grandson - five dates when Jimmy will face horror and violence, malice and depravity. Outside, a storm rages. The old man's words have a blood-curdling significance.

At the very moment his grandfather dies, Jimmy is born, condemned to fight an evil so dark and so all-pervading that only the brightest human spirit can break through it. What dangers await Jimmy in those five dark days? What terrible events must he endure?

In each moment of crisis, a tangle of secrets unravels that will test his understanding of good and evil, life and death - and everything in between.
