Whispering Room, Dean Koontz

Second in the Jane Hawk series finds Jane still on the run from the powerful 'Arcadians' but as they are learning to their cost she doesn't always run away from them. Jane, using her FBI training and wealth of experience acts as an instrument of vengeance for all of the people, including her husband, killed because their names were on a list of people the Arcadians wanted eliminated. She's also fighting to keep her son safe from a world the Arcadians envisage as paradise. Her target? D.J. Michael, the millionaire philanthropist, whose real agenda is nothing less than mind controlling the entire population. And it seems she's close to having a shot at him, if she can survive his security forces, who intend to rip her limb from limb.
