Breathless by Dean Koontz

Grady Adams and his Irish wolfhound Merlin have an encounter with two large white creatures which bear no resemblance to any creature seen before on earth.  Vet Cammy Rivers witnesseses a room of traumatised puppy farm retrievers spontaneously become still and then release all their suffering and become like normal happy dogs, and a field full of horses and assorted ducks, goats and other animals stand fixed in one direction for 15 minutes and then revert to normal.  Henry Rouvray brings death to the house of his twin Jim and his wife Nora but it is soon him that is being stalked.  Good but ends far too quickly, feels like the issues contained within with regard to the subject of evolution are not properly worked through.
