Now an HBO limited series starring Ben Mendelsohn!, Evil has many faces...maybe even yours in this #1 New York Times bestseller from master storyteller Stephen King. An eleven-year-old boy's violated corpse is discovered in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City's most popular citizens-Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon have DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad. As the investigation expands and horrifying details begin to emerge, King's story kicks into high gear, generating strong tension and almost unbearable suspense. Terry Maitland seems like a nice guy, but is he wearing another face? When the answer comes, it will shock you as only Stephen King can.

Perfect Read!

I bought this a while ago and I finally got around to finishing it. If you're looking for a cool suspense novel where the supernatural takes a hold of a hardened detective, this book is perfect for you. It's a really great summer read.

You think you have it figured out but you don't!

I actually read this book because I saw it as a show on HBO and realized it was Stephen King and decided I had to read the book first. It was one of those that you could NOT put down. Every second of free time I had I was reading this. You start the book thinking things in this town are out of control but then you realize it can get much crazier. I loved the character development and the ending that begs for more. Also a plus, after finishing I watched the show and the show has an alternative ending so you get two different versions of the story.

The outsider

I bought this book last week and once I finished it it had me in suspense, I felt like I was watching the series which I still haven’t watched...overall outstanding.
