Hatch and Lindsey Harrison were driving in a March snowstorm when a beer truck drives their Honda off the road, down an embankment, and into a frozen lake. Lindsey frantically frees Hatch from the car before he can drown, but his wounds are too much and by the time the ambulance gets there he is dead. However, at the hospital Dr. Jonas Nyebern decides that because Hatch was in freezing water he is dead . . . but retrievable, even though it has been more than an hour. Miraculously, Nyebern resuscitates Hatch and given this second chance, the Harrisons celebrate each day they have been given. But then people who have done the Harrisons wrong start to die violently and we know before he does that there is a connection between his death and this evil.Readers of modern horror stories will see some similarities between the initial situation that Dean Koontz has set up in "Hideaway" and Stephen King's "The Dead Zone." But whereas Johnny Smith always had the gift of foresight, Hatch Harrison finds himself trapped in a new world. Hatch remembers nothing of what happened during the time he was dead, but now he is having terrible visions. At first he thinks they are nightmares, but of course he is seeing horrible things that are really happening. If he did come back from the white light then it appears he brought something back when he was revived. Doubting his own innocence, Hatch is concerned for his family, which consists of not only Lindsey but also their newly adopted daughter, Regina, who wears a clunky leg brace and has a deformed right hand. Whatever is out there, it wants them all and it wants them for something big.
