Description
The idyllic small town of Haven, Maine, encounters a deadly evil in this classic King bestseller - now with a stunning new cover look.
Coming back to the little community is like walking into a nightmare for Jim Gardener, poet, drunk, potential suicide.
It all looks the same, the house, the furniture, Jim's friend Bobbi, her beagle (though ageing), even the woods out at the back.
But it was in the woods that Bobbi stumbled over the odd, part-buried object and felt a peculiar tingle as she brushed the soft earth away.
Everything is familiar. But everything is about to change.
Rejacketted reissue of a chilling science fiction title from the number one bestselling author, supported by a marketing campaign for the backlist directing readers to the right book for them.
