Pina Colada Cake and a Book Review

I just finished listening to The House at the End of the World by Dean Koontz.  Like all of Koontz's novels, it is filled with conspiracy theories, people on the run from big government and scientific explorations that are top secret and have horrendous results and, of course, a happy ending.  I enjoyed it as I do all of his works.
