Publisher Description
A powerful tale of grief, love’s enduring bonds, and secrets of the past from #1 New York Times bestselling author and master storyteller Stephen King.
Four years after the sudden death of his wife, bestselling novelist Mike Noonan is still grieving. Unable to write and plagued by vivid nightmares set at the western Maine summerhouse he calls “Sara Laughs,” Mike reluctantly returns to the lakeside getaway. There, he finds his beloved Yankee town held in the grip of a powerful millionaire, Max Devore, whose vindictive purpose is to take his three-year-old granddaughter, Kyra, away from her widowed young mother, Mattie. As Mike is drawn into Mattie’s and Kyra’s struggle—and as he falls in love with both of them—he is also drawn into the mystery of Sara Laughs…now the site of ghostly visitations and escalating terrors. What are the forces that have been unleashed here—and just what do they want of Mike Noonan?
Customer Reviews
Amazing book
This book is equal parts engrossing and heartbreaking. I loved the narration by Stephen King.
Misfire
Not one of King’s better works. Enjoyable enough to finish though.
Not bad except….
The book is good, not his best but still good. Nice love story with the supernatural slant, but a bit too long. However, I was fine with using the “n” word - he uses it more than most other writers in this genre and I assume it’s because he’s from Maine (I can say that ‘cause I’m black and from MA) and his age. But combining that word (I can’t even count how many times he used it in the last few chapters) with the gang rape in more detail then the love story, it bothers me, but maybe it’s just me. I’ve read almost everything he’s written (I’m afraid of clowns and the fog thanks to SK, and his short stories are wonderful, so to dislike a story is a big deal for me.
