![]() ![]() This is a gift his mother has told him to keep to himself, the less people that know the better, right? When his mom’s ex-friend, a not-so-clean cop, picks him up to use his power to help her benefit, his life changes forever. Our narrator and main character, Jamie, is a young boy that can see the dead. I don’t want to give away anything, especially with it being around only 250 pages. Part coming of age, part mystery, and a dash of horror come together seamlessly for a memorable story. LATER is a quick little crime fiction read with a hint of supernatural elements to it that only King can bring us. It’s no secret that I love the Hard Case Crime series, and as a big King fan, it was really exciting to see a new one releasing with HCC. With echoes of King’s classic novel IT, Later is a powerful, haunting, unforgettable exploration of what it takes to stand up to evil in all the faces it wears. Later is Stephen King at his finest, a terrifying and touching story of innocence lost and the trials that test our sense of right and wrong. But the cost of using this ability is higher than Jamie can imagine – as he discovers when an NYPD detective draws him into the pursuit of a killer who has threatened to strike from beyond the grave. Born with an unnatural ability his mom urges him to keep secret, Jamie can see what no one else can see and learn what no one else can learn. The son of a struggling single mother, Jamie Conklin just wants an ordinary childhood. #1 bestselling author Stephen King returns with a brand-new novel about the secrets we keep buried and the cost of unearthing them. ![]()
