Synopsis
A man must wrestle with a dreadful fate in this supernatural thriller by master of psychological suspense Dean Koontz. What if you knew which days in your life would be the most pivotal--and the most perilous? Well, pastry chef Jimmy Tock knows. While Jimmy was being born, Jimmy's grandfather, lying on his deathbed, predicted that five terrible days would come in Jimmy's future--not including that particular day, during which a clown massacred several people in the very same hospital where both Jimmy and his grandfather were patients. The book charts the course of Jimmy's horrifying destiny over each of those five days, all of which occur in Jimmy's early adulthood.

Industry Reviews
"Book after book, year after year, this author climbs to the top of the charts. Why? His readers know: because he is a master storyteller and a daring writer, and because, in his novels, he gives readers bright hope in a dark world. His new book is an exemplar of his extraordinary work....Koontz is a true original and this novel, one of his most unusual yet, will leave readers aglow and be a major bestseller." (starred review)
Publishers Weekly (11/15/2004)
"...Mr. Koontz is a skillful storyteller....LIFE EXPECTANCY offers a clear illustration of what he does right."
New York Times - Janet Maslin (12/06/2004)
"It takes a talented reader to successfully perform a book like this, and actor John Bedford Lloyd does so marvelously....While Lloyd's portrayal of Jimmy Tock is terrific, it is the personalities he gives to the rest of the Tock family, as well as the clowns and other evil circus performers, that make the reading superb and the listening so memorable."
