Red Rain by @deankoontz

By Pamelascott

In a town where the corrupt are protected, a bereaved mother seeks retribution for an arsonist's deadly crimes. Only Nameless can help ease the burden of her grief-and satisfy her rage-in part four of this thrilling series.

After a suspicious house fire, Regina Belmont lost her two children, was left disfigured, and was abandoned by her gutless husband. Broken-hearted and bullied into silence by corrupt officials, Regina's only recourse for truth and justice is Nameless. There's something about this case that's breaking Nameless's heart as well. But can he bear to remember why?

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz comes Red Rain, part of Nameless, a riveting collection of short stories about a vigilante nomad, stripped of his memories and commissioned to kill. Follow him in each story, which can be read or listened to in a single sitting.

This was another enjoyable trip with Nameless and his band of vigilante's. This series goes from strength to strength, raising more questions that it does answers. This is one of my favourite episodes. I feel Nameless is starting to develop more as a character. There are hints that Nameless may be starting to get his memory back. I wonder where this will lead. Will he remember who he is? What will the figures in in the dark pulling his strings have to say about that? The violence goes up a notch here as well. These stories are enjoyable in their own right but I wonder if Koontz plans to turn Nameless into a full length book? Only two more adventures to go.
