The first installment in the chilling Bill Hodges trilogy. Adapted into a hit TV series.
A stolen Mercedes is deliberately driven into a crowd, killing and injuring dozens. The case remains unsolved — and haunts retired detective Bill Hodges. Then, one day, he receives a letter. From the killer.
He promises the next massacre will be even bloodier.
Pulled back into the investigation, Bill is forced into a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game with a twisted and brilliant mind. The race is on to stop a madman before he strikes again.
A gripping psychological thriller from the master of suspense — part crime novel, part detective story, and 100% King.
