I can't put this book down. King leaves clues. As the book progresses I have to look back at previous chapters, especially for names and dates. He keeps you guessing and then fills you in with two words at the end of the sentence. Especially about the old couple's dinnertime. It's as though I'm in the story and the author is walking around showing me what's going on in each chapter once or twice. Not much on t v. So it's been nice to curl up to this book. Costco had the book for 17.00 last week.
