2005 novel by Dean Koontz (8)

I believe the answer is:

velocity

(Other definitions for velocity that I've seen before include "Love city on speed" , "Rate of motion in a specified direction" , "Agreeable -- Riviera resort" , "Distance travelled per unit of time" , "Rate of movement." .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
