Description
Now with a stunning new cover look, the ultimate storyteller Stephen King presents the classic bestseller about a shop where you can buy whatever you want - but it comes at a price.
There is a new shop in town. Run by a stranger.
Needful Things, the sign says. A name that causes some gossip and speculation among the good folks of Castle Rock, Maine, while they wait for opening day.
Eleven-year-old Brian Rusk is the first customer and he gets just what he wants: a very rare 1956 baseball card. Cyndi Rose is next. A Lalique vase. A perfect match for her living room decor.
There is something for everyone. And always at a price you can just about afford. The cash price that
is. Because there is another price. There always is when your heart's most secret desire is for sale . . .
Hodder are boosting Stephen King's backlist with new covers, new author brand lettering and a marketing campaign which directs readers to the right King title for them.
