This is the next to most recent of the series of thrillers showing the 'down to earth' side of King. The retired cop and the perpetrator of an unsolved crime has frequently been done, but again King manages to find a completely original angle. A favourite theme, the vintage car and a host of unlikely, but certainly believable characters, plus a breath-takingly fast pace and a chilling cat-and-mouse suspense make this a super read for travel, holiday or just relaxation.
