[CRAZY-HORSE]

STEPHEN KING "finders keepers"

the second novel in the "bill hodges trilogy"....

Hodges, Holly and Jerome—our heroes from the first book in this trilogy—don’t even enter the picture until a third of the way through, and Jerome doesn’t really feature in the story until it nears its conclusion.

Instead we meet Morris and Pete—a terrifying villain and a young hero separated by four decades, but whose lives are destined to intersect because of their passion for the writings of John Rothstein.

The opening third of the book is Stephen King at his absolute best—just pure, powerful, storytelling, with scenes that span four decades from Rothstein’s murder in the 1970s to the economic downturn in the 2000s and the MR. MERCEDES attack.

With all the pieces in place, the final two-thirds of the book is pure thriller. There’s not a mystery for the reader to solve—you know full well who the bad guy is and what he is capable of—but King leaves you white-knuckled, hanging on to the edge of your seat as Pete desperately tries to save his family … and Hodges, Holly and Jerome desperately try to save Pete.

One other thing … there are some chilling scenes with Hodges and Brady—the psychopath from MR. MERCEDES—that are perhaps setting up a more King-esque horror finale for the final book in this trilogy.

rating: 4.5/5

looking foreward the the trilogy finale in 2016 entitled "end of watch",
infact, im looking foreward to this one more than any other King novel since "misery"

MH....
I think both you and Deb would love the "mr.Mercedes" and "finders keepers"....pure thriller,no filler and no supernatural crap!
