Wake up, genius. Geniet er John Rothstein, forfatteren bak den kjente karakteren Jimmy Gold, og som ikke har utgitt en bok på flere tiår. Morris Bellamy er bister, ikke bare fordi Rothstein har sluttet å skrive bøker, men fordi Jimmy Gold har solgt seg for en karriere i reklame. Morris dreper Rothstein og tømmer ham for kontanter. Men den virkelige skatten er notatbøkene som inneholder minst én Gold-roman. Morris gjemmer unna pengene og notatbøkene før han blir fengslet for en annen forbrytelse. Tiår senere finner gutten Pete Sauber skatten, og nå blir det Pete og hans familie som Bill Hodges, Holly Gibney og Jerome Robinson må redde fra den stadig mer sinnsforvirrede og hevngjerrige Morris når han løslates fra fengsel etter 35 år. Dette er oppfølgeren til Mr Mercedes.
A masterful, intensely suspenseful novel about a reader whose obsession with a reclusive writer goes far too far—a book about the power of storytelling, starring the same trio of unlikely and winning heroes King introduced in Mr. Mercedes.“Wake up, genius.” So begins King’s instantly riveting story about a vengeful reader. The genius is John Rothstein, an iconic author who created a famous character, Jimmy Gold, but who hasn’t published a book for decades. Morris Bellamy is livid, not just because Rothstein has stopped providing books, but because the nonconformist Jimmy Gold has sold out for a career in advertising. Morris kills Rothstein and empties his safe of cash, yes, but the real treasure is a trove of notebooks containing at least one more Gold novel.Morris hides the money and the notebooks, and then he is locked away for another crime. Decades later, a boy named Pete Saubers finds the treasure, and now it is Pete and his family that Bill Hodges, Holly Gibney, and Jerome Robinson must rescue from the ever-more deranged and vengeful Morris when he’s released from prison after thirty-five years. - See more at: http://books.simonandschuster.biz/Finders-Keepers/Stephen-King/9781501100079#sthash.nqF967tn.dpuf
