A BLACK FATHER. A WHITE FATHER. TWO MURDERED SONS. A QUEST FOR VENGEANCE. *SUNDAY TIMES THRILLER OF THE MONTH* * FINANCIAL TIMES CRIME BOOKS OF THE YEAR* * BARACK OBAMA'S SUMMER READING LIST 2022* 'Superb...Cuts right to the heart of the most important questions of our times.' MICHAEL CONNELLY 'The very definition of a white-knuckle ride' IAN RANKIN Ike Randolph left jail fifteen years ago, with not so much as a speeding ticket since. But a Black man with cops at the door knows to be afraid. Ike is devastated to learn his son Isiah has been murdered, along with Isiah's white husband, Derek. Though he never fully accepted his son, Ike is broken by his death. Derek's father Buddy Lee was as ashamed of Derek being gay as Derek was of his father's criminal past. But Buddy Lee - with seedy contacts deep in the underworld - needs to know who killed his only child. Desperate to do better by them in death than they did in life, two hardened ex-cons must confront their own prejudices about their sons - and each other - as they rain down vengeance upon those who hurt their boys. A provocative revenge thriller and an achingly tender story of redemption, this novel is a ferocious portrait of grief; for those loved and lost, and for mistakes than can never truly be undone.

""¿Te gusta la oscuridad? Perfecto. A mí también" es cómo inicia Stephen King el epílogo de este nuevo y magnífico volumen de doce relatos que se adentran en la parte más sombría de la vida. King lleva más de medio siglo siendo un maestro literario, y estas historias sobre el destino, la mortalidad, la suerte y los múltiples pliegos de la realidad son tan ricas y absorbentes como sus novelas. El autor escribe "para sentir la emoción de dejar atrás la rutina", y en Si te gusta la oscuridad los lectores sentirán, una y otra vez, esa misma emoción. "Dos cabrones con talento" nos revelará el secreto de cómo estos dos caballeros adquirieron sus habilidades. En "El mal sueño de Danny Coughlin", una explosión psíquica inesperada pone patas arriba la vida de docenas de personas, incluido Danny, con catastróficos resultados. "Serpientes de cascabel", secuela de la novela Cujo, nos presenta a un viudo que viaja a Florida buscando descanso y, en su lugar, se topa con una inesperada herencia... con más de una atadura. En "Los soñadores", un taciturno veterano de la guerra de Vietnam acepta un encargo y descubre que hay algunos rincones del universo que deberían quedar inexplorados. "Hombre Respuesta" nos plantea si el don de la clarividencia es una bendición o una maldición, y nos recuerda que incluso una vida marcada por la tragedia tiene significado. La habilidad del Rey del Terror para sorprender, inspirar y provocarnos tanto miedo como consuelo al mismo tiempo no tiene parangón. Cada uno de estos relatos contiene sus propios escalofríos, alegrías y misterios, y todos son icónicos. ¿Os gusta la oscuridad? Pues aquí la tenéis"--

Roland takes charge of Bill Streeter, the brave but terrified boy who is the sole surviving witness to the beast’s most recent slaughter. Only a teenager himself, Roland calms the boy and prepares him for the following day’s trials by reciting a story from the Magic Tales of the Eld that his mother often read to him at bedtime. “A person’s never too old for stories,” Roland says to Bill. “Man and boy, girl and woman, never too old.
