Publisher Description
The #1 national bestseller about a woman who escapes an abusive marriage is “one of Stephen King’s most engrossing horror novels. Relentlessly paced and brilliantly orchestrated...fueled by an air of danger immediate and overwhelming” (Publishers Weekly).
"What woke her up was a single drop of blood, no larger than a dime."
After surviving fourteen years of hell in a violently abusive marriage, Rosie Daniels finally summons the courage to flee for her life. But leaving her husband, Norman, for a new city and a new start is a very daunting prospect. It's hard for Rosie not to keep looking over her shoulder, and with good reason—Norman's a police officer with the instincts of a predator, a force of relentless terror and savagery…a man almost mythic in his monstrosity. He's very good at finding people, even if he is losing his mind. Rosie’s only hope for salvation may lie in a far more dangerous place, where she must become her own myth and the woman she never knew she could be....
Customer Reviews
One of my favorites by Stephen King
I love this book. It’s incredible and twisted and clever and dark. My only issue with this audio reading is the music and sounds added occasionally. The reader does an excellent job and if not for the music, it would be 5 stars instead of 4.
My Favorite King Novel
I loved this book, and the narrators - especially the FMC - were fabulous. The antagonist is one of Stephen King’s best, and the story had a strong ending - a rare occurrence with King novels in my experience.
Some of the imagery/settings of this book I will always remember. Beautiful and fantastical and eerie all at once. One of my favorite reads of the year.
Not my favorite SK book
The narrator was great. I did not like the music, found that very annoying. The book itself was ok.
