during the late 80's early 90's i was very ill, diagnosed terminal and was sick for several
years. during that time i read or listened to lots of books. many by King, some by Koontz and others. there was one book, a thriller about a killer(maybe superhuman) and someone who was trying to solve the crimes. it was intense and typical King or Koontz type novel.
the unique part of the story was that it had another character-a dog. maybe a lab or retriever? the story was told by all parties, the killer, the savior and very humorously, by the dog. it was like you were hearing the dogs thoughts during the plot. the dog was doing his thing like the rest and they eventually all came together from different stories within the book. the dog smelled the killer and 'he' smelled 'different' -not right. these are
the only things i remember about this story. it was suspenseful and funny. i thought it was a book by Koontz called Dragon Tears but cannot find any info. Maybe its a King?
Has anyone read or remember such a tale?
appreciated,
BJ
