About this listen
An Amazon Charts, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestseller.
From Dean Koontz, the master of suspense, comes an epic thriller about a terrifying killer and the singular compassion it will take to defeat him.
“Canine or human, it is hard to find a more lovable character in fiction than Kipp. Devoted has every mark of a classic.” - Associated Press
Woody Bookman hasn’t spoken a word in his eleven years of life. Not when his father died in a freak accident. Not when his mother, Megan, tells him she loves him. For Megan, keeping her boy safe and happy is what matters. But Woody believes a monstrous evil was behind his father’s death and now threatens him and his mother. And he’s not alone in his thoughts. An ally unknown to him is listening.
A uniquely gifted dog with a heart as golden as his breed, Kipp is devoted beyond reason to people. When he hears the boy who communicates like he does, without speaking, Kipp knows he needs to find him before it’s too late.
Woody’s fearful suspicions are taking shape. A man driven by a malicious evil has set a depraved plan into motion. And he’s coming after Woody and his mother. The reasons are primal. His powers are growing. And he’s not alone. Only a force greater than evil can stop what’s coming next.

Critic reviews
"Readers who were wondering how Koontz could possibly follow up his remarkable Jane Hawk series can breathe a sigh of relief. His new novel finds him still at the top of his game…Scary, sickening (in that good way), and touching, this is a novel that will delight both the author's legion of fans and those who finally decide it's time to find out what this guy Koontz is all about." — Booklist (starred review)
"Canine or human, it is hard to find a more lovable character in fiction than Kipp. Devoted has every mark of a classic." —Associated Press
"A warm, deeply engrossing tale…Not to be missed." —Providence Journal

A doggy tale
Very much like his earlier book The Watchers. A dog with a human mind and a monster. A boy with autism and his mother are attacked by an old beau (now turning into a monster) of the mother. The dog who when his mistress died left to find a boy. An ex Navy seal and te companion of the dogs owner, all come together to combat four killers who had been sent to kill the mother and boy because the boy had infiltrated a site on the dark web where murderers where for hire when he tried to find who had killed his father. Brilliantly read by Edwardo Ballerini.

Good but a bit soppy...
So, I've loved Dean Koontz's books since I was a child, loved how quickly he gets through the intro and throws the readers into the story, and then it's a fast paced journey until the end. This book and a few others have mostly a brilliant storyline, but the language has become more about love and light and peace and belonging, and less a thrilling story you never want to end. I hope he will get back to how he used to write, which was a language full of descriptions but also thrills and fear. All the way through this book I could hear the violins in the background...not what I look for in a thriller/horror.

Author is a Dog Lover
From this book I get the distinct impression, a deep impression, that this author is a major dog lover. In my opinion this would have been better as a cat lover novel. Haha, just kidding. That wouldn’t work. Even though I’m not a lover of dogs, I rather love cats, the dog and boy theme fits this book as it should. Four stars instead of five as I usually give to Koontz books, but only because there was less action, and way too much rambling dog love. Oh well. Pretty good story otherwise. With a twist at the end that’s satisfying.
