A woman astride a ghostly mount is the latest to enlist the aid of Odd Thomas, the unassuming young fry cook whose gift—or curse—it is to see the restless dead, and to help them when he can. In Dean Koontz’s Odd Apocalypse, Odd’s new mission will lead him through new realms of darkness, as he probes the long-held secrets of a sinister estate.

Once presided over by a Hollywood mogul, the West Coast property known as Roseland is now home to a reclusive billionaire. And, at least for the moment, it’s also a port in the storm for Odd Thomas and his traveling companion, the charming Annamaria, the Lady of the Bell. But there’s far more to Roseland than meets even the extraordinary eye of Odd, who soon suspects it may be more hell than haven.

A harrowing taste of Roseland’s terrors convinces Odd that it’s time to hit the road again. Still, the prescient Annamaria insists that they’ve been led there for a reason, and he’s promised to do his best for the ghost on horseback. Just how deep and dreadful are Roseland’s mysteries? And what consequences await whoever is brave, or mad, enough to confront this most profound breed of evil? Odd will find out as he takes on his most terrifying challenge yet.
