Reminds be of “Lightning” by Dean Koontz. It was the first book I read of his, and it’s still my favorite, though the “Odd Thomas” books are a close second.
Excellent! Not too long a read, either, so one doesn’t get bored. As far as pure adrenaline in a book, his “Velocity.” I was almost in shock, but couldn’t put it down. Of course, when I went to read it again, I decided to do it in stages. NOT! Doesn’t work that way.
Never read anything of his.
