We will have to wait until the end of the summer to give a good review of the new Stephen King. One of those stories that takes up the old paths of the first King between paranormal and sinister events, or both things perfectly combined in an imaginary where everything has a place towards the most maddening verisimilitude.
For the occasion, the dark unfinished business of the plot revolves around a character who started as secondary in the Bill Hodges trilogy. A Holly Gibney who from a very light initial profiling was gaining ground and contributing that rennet of the aspiring protagonists in the endless King universe. With it the plots extend towards the most chilling noir that already exploded in our faces with "The Visitor" and "Blood Rules". So, once again, let's hold hands with Holly to cross thresholds of evil made flesh...
When Penny Dahl contacts Finders Keepers for help finding her daughter, something in the woman's desperate voice forces Holly Gibney to take the job.
A short distance from the place where Bonnie Dahl disappeared, live teachers Rodney and Emily Harris. They are the quintessence of bourgeois respectability: a dedicated octogenarian married couple of semi-retired academics. No one would guess that, in the basement of their immaculate book-lined house, they hide a secret directly related to Bonnie's disappearance.
They are cunning, patient and ruthless, and they will force Holly to use her skills to the fullest and risk everything if she wants to close the darkest case she has ever faced.
