Going Home in the Dark,” by Dean Koontz (Thomas & Mercer)

Dean Koontz, a master of the macabre known for “Whispers” and “Strangers,” tells the tale of four inseparable friends at school, ridiculed as nerds and outcasts by their classmates. They reunite two decades later when one of the “four amigos” — the only one who remained in their childhood town — falls into a coma. After 20 years of being away, they’re actually drawn back to the town that was the source of their childhood taunts, as their old friend sinks deeper into his coma. Soon they recall strange things about the town, including a hulking, murderous figure. Things they had long forgotten. “As usual, I read Dean Koontz’ latest novel the day I received it. And as usual, I enjoyed it,” said Luann in her Goodreads review. “He also threw in the usual sci-fi, current news, and pop culture references. I love that Dean keeps up to date with what is going on in the world.”  [Fiction]In the Interest of Justice: One Woman’s Fight Against a Weaponized Justice Department to Save Her Husband,” by Martha Byrne (Post Hill Press)
