Now with a stunning new cover look, Stephen King’s spectacular suspense about how literature shapes a life – for good, for bad, for ever.

1978: Morris Bellamy is a reader so obsessed by America’s iconic author John Rothstein that he is prepared to kill for a trove of notebooks containing at least one more unpublished novel.

2009: Pete Saubers, a boy whose father was brutally injured by a stolen Mercedes, discovers a buried trunk containing cash and Rothstein’s notebooks.

2014: After thirty-five years in prison, Morris is up for parole. And he’s hell-bent on recovering his treasure.

Now it’s up to retired detective Bill Hodges – running an investigative company called Finders Keepers with Holly Gibney – to rescue Pete from an ever-more deranged and vengeful Morris

Reviews

Stephen King might just be America's greatest living novelist . . . THE BEST THRILLER OF THE YEAR . . . Recommended to crime buffs and King fans alike.
Sunday Express
A very remarkable and singular writer. He can catch dialogue, throw away an observation or mint a simile, sometimes, brilliantly . . . Storytelling is everything - and by golly does he know how to carry the reader.
Observer
Expect page-turning suspense, jaw-dropping twists and all the addictive brilliance of a classic Stephen King.
FHM
A thrilling cat-and-mouse game
Irish Mail on Sunday
King has the popular novelist's gifts in spades - a flawless sense of pace, an ear for dialogue, an eye for the telling detail, a no-mess-no-fuss approach to characterisation
Keith Miller, Spectator
An almost constant build of momentum, growing in pace and tension until it finally explodes... manages to thrill with every page
Guardian
A classic cat-and-mouse tale, this is King at his rip-roaring best
Mail on Sunday
Fantastic...In part a love letter to literature, this is vintage King - jaw droppingly brutal but full of heart and humanity. Roll on the last in the trilogy
Sunday Mirror
A remarkable display of storytelling.
John Dugdale, Sunday Times
It's expertly plotted, a series of pieces falling into place with almost audible satisfaction as the author burns towards his suitably horrific climax.
Alison Flood, Observer
This novel is slick, seamlessly crafted, shockingly gory and packed with suspense
The Times
MR MERCEDES was a terrific thriller, and now there's a sequel. I squeak with glee.
Natalie Haynes, Independent
FINDERS KEEPERS is a first-rate crime thriller, but it's also to King's credit that, more than 40 years into his career, he continues to experiment, and his talent, curiosity, and generous, humane spirit show no signs of flagging.
John Connolly, Irish Independent
Unlike John Rothstein it seems Stephen King is determined to publish everything he can write. If books such as the effortlessly exciting FINDERS KEEPERS are the result, we should all be grateful.
