About this listen

A compelling and chilling suspense novel that will delight all fans of King's best-selling Hodges Trilogy.

Following the phenomenal success of his Bill Hodges series - Mr Mercedes, Finders Keepers and End of Watch, all number one best sellers - Stephen King has written an enthralling crime thriller with a unique twist.

When an 11-year-old boy is found murdered, forensic evidence and reliable eyewitnesses undeniably point to the town's popular Little League coach. But the jailed suspect, arrested in a public spectacle, has an alibi, and further research convinces Detective Ralph Anderson that the coach was indeed out of town. So how can he have been in two places at the same time?

I was skeptical about this book as I read lots of reviews and most said it wasn't his best.
I haven't read any Stephen King books for years after Pet Cemetery gave me nightmares lol! I found this a great listen. Not sure I would have got through it had I bought the book. But as an audible I thought it was really good. I will definitely be purchasing another as I feel I have rediscovered Stephen King

I absolutely loved this book, the narrator is one of my favourites. Definitely recommended. An appearance from a character from another Stephen King book was a welcome surprise. Disappointed when it finished.

Don't get me wrong, it's a great book! Keeps you guessing and great narration. However, the last 4-5 hours could be condensed.
