Mr. Mercedes by Stephen King

Maybe the most prolific and recognizable horror writer in the world, we have the new novel by Stephen King. In this novel, a sick (and crazy) man drives into a crowd of job seekers with....you guessed it....a Mercedes Benz, killing 8 and wounding others. A year later, the lead detective is retired and he decides to both taunt him and push him to suicide....instead he pushes him to launch his own investigation before he can do something again. In the meantime, there's flings, love, stuff that made me cringe (something that just ain't natural....mother and son shouldn't be THAT close), and a race against time before the big finale....but just how does it end? Pick up this novel as the twist and turns are enjoyable as this novel is a great read from beginning to end. Although the unlikely partnership is somewhat predictable, just see where pieces land in this battle between good and twisted, sickening evil. In other words, the master of suspense
has done it again.
