Cleaning out my closets for space, and have decided (with much inner turmoil) to free some of my old Stephen King novels. Too many books, too little time, so it's very unlikely that I'll ever re-read this.
This is a fantastic book. Beautifully written (as only King himself can write), not quite a "horror" book, but one of his best works.
Cover blurb:
Four years after the sudden death of his wife, forty-year-old bestselling novelist Mike Noonan is still grieving. Unable to write, and plagued by vivid nightmares set at the western Maine summerhouse he calls Sara Laughs, Mike reluctantly returns to the lakeside getaway. There, he finds his beloved Yankee town held in the grip of a powerful millionaire, Max Devore, whose vindictive purpose is to take his three-year-old granddaughter, Kyra, away from her widowed young mother, Mattie. As Mike is drawn into Mattie and Kyra's struggle, as hefalls in love with both of them, he is also drawn into the mystery of Sara Laughs, now the site of ghostly visitations and escalating terrors. What are the forces that have been unleashed here--and what do they want of Mike Noonan?

My mother has never read this, I have a feeling she will really like the story. I gave it to her this evening...

I found it in my son's hand. I plan to place it for someone else to find after I read it.
