King’s psychological suspense is at its most riveting in this extraordinarily dramatic and eerie story. King constructs a propulsive plot, and a race against time to uncover the identity of a terrifying and diabolical killer who has left victims-and “perpetrators”-across the country, and who is on his way to his next horrific act. Maitland has a foolproof alibi, with footage to prove that he was in another city when the crime was committed. Maitland is taken to jail, his claim to innocence scorned. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland coached, orders an immediate and public arrest. The fingerprints (and later DNA) are unmistakably those of the town’s most popular baseball coach, Terry Maitland, a man of impeccable reputation, with a wife and two daughters. From #1 New York Times bestseller Stephen King, whose brand has never been stronger, comes one of his most propulsive and unsettling stories ever.Īn eleven-year-old boy is found in a town park, hideously assaulted and murdered.
