Summary
The #1 national bestseller about a woman who escapes an abusive marriage is “one of Stephen King’s most engrossing horror novels. Relentlessly paced and brilliantly orchestrated...fueled by an air of danger immediate and overwhelming” (Publishers Weekly).

'What woke her up was a single drop of blood, no larger than a dime.'

After surviving fourteen years of hell in a violently abusive marriage, Rosie Daniels finally summons the courage to flee for her life. But leaving her husband, Norman, for a new city and a new start is a very daunting prospect. It's hard for Rosie not to keep looking over her shoulder, and with good reason—Norman's a police officer with the instincts of a predator, a force of relentless terror and savagery…a man almost mythic in his monstrosity. He's very good at finding people, even if he is losing his mind. Rosie’s only hope for salvation may lie in a far more dangerous place, where she must become her own myth and the woman she never knew she could be....

Great book. And as an added bonus it touches on the tower. Can't go wrong with this one.

What a amazing book very worth the time it takes to listen to it, and the two narrators really bring this book to life five stars all the way 100% recommend

Well written *story*, but I do have to agree with the person below who said (regarding the narrator), "the way she reads interrogative sentences was annoying. . .". After this story, I'm afraid I will tend to avoid this narrator, also. A spoken question should only have an *upward * inflection on/to the end word. The narrator adds a weird, extra "downward then swooping right back upward" inflection to the last word or two that makes the last word "dip down then up" in an odd way I'd say most people wouldn't really speak. She isn't a "bad" reader, but there is that issue. Overall, she sounds a bit too....formal...or AI-ish....like she's reading ABOUT a character speaking, rather than coming across "as the real, relatable character". Not sure how else to explain it.

I strongly disliked the narrator. The way she reads interrogative sentences was annoying to the point of distraction. I will have to make sure to avoid books with her as the narrator in the future because it unfortunately ruined the experience (and the story) for me.

This story is excellent! The narrators were good! My only complaint was the fade in/out music..it was screechy and very hard on the ears!

Love the story, the plot line where an abusive, demonic husband comes after the woman who left him kind of remind me of Bev Marsh's story from "It" tho. All in all 5 stars for the narrator and 4.5 for the book.

I really thought this was a great book. the ending was a little weird, not what I expected, but all in all a very good book. I really liked the narrator Blair Brown. I was pleased to hear Stephen King read parts of the book. Excellent!
