NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER—soon to be an HBO limited series starring Ben Mendelsohn!
An unspeakable crime. A confounding investigation. At a time when the King brand has never been stronger, he has delivered one of his most unsettling and compulsively readable stories.
An eleven-year-old boy’s violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City’s most popular citizens. He is Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad.
As the investigation expands and horrifying answers begin to emerge, King’s propulsive story kicks into high gear, generating strong tension and almost unbearable suspense. Terry Maitland seems like a nice guy, but is he wearing another face? When the answer comes, it will shock you as only Stephen King can.

disturbing but unputtdownable

VERY disturbing, creepy and upsetting story, but utterly unputdownable. Provided me with several almost sleepless or disturbed nights, tossing around in bed with strange dreams.
I celebrated Holly‘s comeback as an independent woman, stronger than ever. She is just so lovable and quirky. Loved also the development of her relationship with Ralph, who was also very likeable, comparable to Bill Hodges.
I worked hard towards this book - I initially thought it was a standalone book (which it can be), but then learned that it‘s lead up upon by the Bill Hodges trilogy. So I decided to commit to the complete experience, which I am glad I did as it made me appreciate Holly so much more.
After reading the Bill Hodges series and this first book of Holly‘s series end to end, I finally and definitely need something lighter now
Grossartig

Stephen King ist einfach der Grösste! Auch dieses Buch Ist spannend von der 1. Seite bis zum Ende. Ich konnte nicht schnell genug lesen undd wollte aber nicht zu schnell fertig lesen. Ich war auch überrascht und habe sehr geschätzt wieder Holly in die Geschichte zu treffen.
Auf jeden Fall ein Must.
