What? How can this book end without any real explanation? I would have given 3 stars If the main secret was explained or even if a few of the side secrets were. Instead, we are simply reflecting on a persons past and a little bit of their present with absolutely no point or enlightenment. (The only secret that was explained ended up being along the lines of “suddenly, his mind changed” and lacked any real meaning or realism.)

Also... The whole quote from Steven king calling this an eerie and suspenseful novel had me expecting horror or anticipation that would be satisfied. Neither were applicable.. (If we are being honest, I have myself to fault for this assumption as I haven't read or liked much Steven King..) Not to mention, the only suspense it had was for answers which we never receive..
