They made a film out of this book. That, I feel, is always a good sign that the book is worth reading. Read the book and ignore the film. No, wait, you must from the film –it is awful.

Hideaway is a masterpiece of modern occult style lore - demons and technology, medicine and fate. Koonz uses established techniques to keep the reader with the book once they’ve opened it; a tragic and horrific crash and then he very quickly slides comfortably into his wonderful writing elegance that makes it all but impossible to put the book back down. You will be finished reading in no time and when you do put the book down you’ll shiver.

Things are wrong after the accident, for one; there is some killer on the loose and for two this cold-blooded murderer seems to have some sort of connection to the hero. The killer is a strong character, in the book he makes a superb anti-hero. Entire chapters are devoted to following his movements and not one of them is a waste of space.
