Review: The Night Window

The Night Window by Dean Koontz
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

THE NIGHT WINDOW is the conclusion to Dean Koontz' enormously riveting (and realistically terrifying) JANE HAWK Series. As this is the final novel in the Quintology, I really feared the ending, so throughout the novel I remained on tenterhooks. This series is so terrifying because IT'S ALL SO POSSIBLE, both in terms of the technology (if not already, soon) and even more intensely, because of the human failings and foibles, the Narcissism, the immense drive for power over others, the greed. Think Genghis Khan and Alexander the Great cloned into one, then that one multiplied. Such is the nature of the Arcadian conspiracy: to enslave all but a tiny percent of humanity, to erase individual freedom and free will. This horrifying prospect drives former FBI agent Jane Hawk to wage war against all Arcadians, no matter how high in government nor politically connected nor wealthy beyond comprehension.
