Hot Off the Press: King’s Latest Novel of Terror, “Duma Key”
written by Brenda Nicholas

“Duma Key” will be on bookshelves in the U.S. on Tuesday, January 22nd and on January 24th in the U.K.

For his latest novel, King steps outside of Maine, into the heat on an island off the Florida coast, where his story unfolds the creative process via supernatural possession. Eerily mirroring his own horrific accident, King’s protagonist , Edgar Freemantle, crashes his Dodge Ram into a crane at a construction site. From here, Freemantle’s life crashes into horror, as only King can master.

Duma Key , by Stephen King
