A cat-and-mouse suspense thriller featuring a retired homicide detective who's haunted by the few cases he left open, and by one in particular - the pre-dawn slaughter of eight people among hundreds gathered in line for the opening of a jobs fair when the economy was guttering out. Without warning, a lone driver ploughed through the crowd in a stolen Mercedes. The plot is kicked into gear when Bill Hodges receives a letter in the mail, from a man claiming to be the perpetrator. He taunts Hodges with the notion that he will strike again. Hodges wakes up from his depressed and vacant retirement, hell-bent on preventing that from happening. Brady Hartsfield lives with his alcoholic mother in the house where he was born. And he's preparing to kill again. Only Hodges, with a couple of misfit friends, can apprehend the killer in this high-stakes race against time. Because Brady's next mission, if it succeeds, will kill or maim hundreds, even thousands.

Terrific! Loved the main characters, especially Holly. Can't wait for the next one, "Finder's Keepers" to come out!

used book
got the book a couple days late, which is fine with the hurricanes going on. The book is in great shape for being a used book.

Over too fast.
I am a huge Stephen King and this book did not disappoint. I tried to make it last longer, but I just couldn't put it down.
As always, complex characters who come alive and a storyline that twists and turns. I did not see the plot changes coming and that's what I enjoy the most.
