#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • This ebook edition contains a special preview of Dean Koontz’s The Silent Corner. Past midnight, Chyna Shepard, twenty-six, gazes out a moonlit window, unable to sleep on her first night in the Napa Valley home of her best friend’s family. Instinct proves reliable. A murderous sociopath, Edgler Foreman Vess, has entered the house, intent on killing everyone inside. A self-proclaimed “homicidal adventurer,” Vess lives only to satisfy all appetites as they arise, to immerse himself in sensation, to live without fear, remorse, or limits, to live with intensity. Chyna is trapped in his deadly orbit. Chyna is a survivor, toughened by a lifelong struggle for safety and self-respect. Now she will be tested as never before. At first her sole aim is to get out alive—until, by chance, she learns the identity of Vess’s next intended victim, a faraway innocent only she can save. Driven by a newly discovered thirst for meaning beyond mere self-preservation, Chyna musters every inner resource she has to save an endangered girl . . . as moment by moment, the terrifying threat of Edgler Foreman Vess intensifies.

Discusses the history and culture of China, offers practical travel advice, and recommends accommodations, restaurants, transportation, and attractions.

Through my professional life, I encountered many situations that prompted storytelling. Encouragement to write these stories in the form of a book was a task I did not thrust upon myself for reasons that English is my second language, and I had never learned it in a structured schooling environment. Life has its own agenda, and with the adversity of the COVID-19 lockdown, I took this idle time to give writing a try. This book is a product of encouragement by my business patrons who had listened to my stories, generated through a dialogue and solicited by curiosity. The stories are based in part on real-life occurrences and laced with fiction. This method does increase the reading and entertainment value and protect those who had been involved in my life from slander or defamation. It was never my intention to cause harm to or hurt anyone personally or a company. It is my hope to open minds and lock up social mentalities held hostage by beliefs or strict upbringing, but do not endeavor to alter basic human values that benefit the peaceful coexistence of the human race, regardless of geographic locations.
