A slow but necessary first two acts builds to a gripping third that is hard to put down. Though a touch of King's normal unneeded political rants takes you out of the story sometimes, the development of these characters is some of his best work in my opinion. Outside of his typical northeastern setting, this reads as a mix of untouched territory for King, with him at his best. An overlooked and underrated story that is a must read for King fans. Fingers crossed on Mike Flanagan adapting this one to the silver screen at some point.
