DESCRIPTION:
A true gem Locket I am a huge fan of Stephen King and this book is in my personal top 10 books by him -- it's an underrated gem! I purchased this on a whim and was hooked from first page to last. It was passed around between my coworkers at work who also fell in love with it! It's now a permanent fixture in our 'work library' for all to en. Visceral and gripping This book does an excellent job of showing how equally horrifying real-life abuse and supernatural horror can be. (And for those of you who don't think the depictions of abuse in this book are 100% realistic, you're living a blessed, naive life.) As a King fan, it took me a while to get around to this novel since it's not. One of my favorite works from my favorite author One of my favorite works from my favorite author.
