A riveting crime thriller about a reader whose obsession with a reclusive writer goes too far, featuring the same trio of unlikely and winning heroes King introduced in MR MERCEDES.

1978:

Morris Bellamy is a reader so obsessed by America´s iconic author John Rothstein that he is prepared to kill for a trove of notebooks containing at least one more unpublished novel.

2009:

Pete Saubers, a boy whose father was brutally injured by a stolen Mercedes, discovers a buried trunk containing cash and Rothstein´s notebooks.

2014:

After thirty-five years in prison, Morris is up for parole. And he´s hell-bent on recovering his treasure.

Now it´s up to retired detective Bill Hodges - running an investigative company called ´Finders Keepers´ - to rescue Pete from an ever-more deranged and vengeful Morris...

Not since Misery has King written with such visceral power about a reader with such a dangerous obsession.Finders Keepers is spectacular suspense, and it is King writing about how literature shapes a life for good, for bad, for ever.
King has the popular novelist´s gifts in spades - a flawless sense of pace, an ear for dialogue, an eye for the telling detail, a no-mess-no-fuss approach to characterisation Keith Miller Spectator
