Book Overview
From legendary storyteller and #1 bestseller Stephen King, whose "restless imagination is a power that cannot be contained," (The New York Times Book Review) comes a thrilling new novel about a good guy in a bad job.
Billy Summers is a man in a room with a gun. He's a killer for hire and the best in the business. But he'll do the job only if the target is a truly bad guy. And now Billy wants out. But first there is one last hit. Billy is among the best snipers in the world, a decorated Iraq war vet, a Houdini when it comes to vanishing after the job is done. So what could possibly go wrong?
How about everything.
This spectacular can't-put-it-down novel is part war story, part love letter to small town America and the people who live there, and it features one of the most compelling and surprising duos in King fiction, who set out to avenge the crimes of an extraordinarily evil man. It's about love, luck, fate, and a complex hero with one last shot at redemption.
You won't put this story down, and you won't forget Billy.

I enjoyed this story, as I do everything he writes. It kept me turning the pages. Maybe not the deepest storyline but they don't all have to be.
I do love SK. There's no one who writes like him, honestly. His characters are so REAL. You could meet any one of them today, at the Walmart, while you're in the checkout lane.
One of his best!

Imho, one of his best novels of intrigue, suspense, a bad man trying to change his path as a writer who finds himself in a cabin above the infamous Overlook Hotel. The characters are flawed but very real. I was riveted.
Fan from his beginning - this is one of my faves!

Dang, this was an awesome read. Has a few very cool references to some of my old faves (Shining; The Stand - will definitely read again down the line to see if I missed any others). A good, long satisfying adventure. Very hard to put down but I made myself cuz I didn't want to finish it too quickly. I'm 72 and retired so I could have read non-stop but I chose to saver it. Not enuf "o's" in COOL! I HOPE the master does a continuation of Alice's life!
Great Story!
