About this listen

The number one best seller: King at the peak of his powers - at once a first-rate suspense novel, a legal thriller, a haunted house story and a love story.

When Mike Noonan's wife dies unexpectedly, the best-selling author suffers from writer's block. Until he is drawn to his summer home, the beautiful lakeside retreat called Sara Laughs.

Here Mike finds the once familiar town in the tyrannical grip of millionaire Max Devore. Devore is hell-bent on getting custody of his deceased son's daughter and is twisting the fabric of the community to this purpose.

Three year old Kyra and her young mother turn to Mike for help. And Mike finds them increasingly irresistible.

But there are other more sinister forces at Sara Laughs - and Kyra can feel them too....

I really enjoyed this audio book, a bonus that it was read by Stephen King himself, he really brought the characters to life.
As soon as i finished it, I downloaded another Stephen King novel, and thats fab too.

Loved it!

A really super story. As with all of King’s books, it takes time to get into the story. And I always struggle with the first couple of hours as he sets the scene etc... but it’s well worth the wait to get into the story! And it’s also necessary for the sale of the story. Stick with it! You’ll love it.

Slow to start but once it does it grabs you with two hands and doesn’t let go until you finish.! Pure brilliance and probably my favourite king book yet!

One of the reason I chose this book was the fact that King was reading his own work. I loved the idea of this however the reality was not so great. I found that it was monotone and without emotion and I found my mind wandering during the early parts of the book as Stephen King as a narrator was simply not captivating. Good job that the story itself was! The addition of strategically placed added to the overall experience and once the story got going even the narration wasn’t enough to spoil it!
Brilliant author, fantastic fiction but please leave the narration to the professional actors....

King at his best (the fiction that is)

the background music is totally unnecessary

Gotta love SK!!!!! I'm a huge fan, However I think I prefer his books when they stay away from the ghost story type theme. I would still recommend this though, its funny how much the little girl, who is only three, can express herself, perhaps she could have been a little older like they made her in the film - which stars Pierce Brosnan (avoid the film at all costs, they completely changed the story!)

Gradually working through all Stephen King's books but struggled to finish this one. Find his narration but monotone.
