End of Watch: A Novel (Bill Hodges Trilogy #3) [B2301]

2017 PB (later printing) in nice clean condition. The fabulously suspenseful final novel in the Bill Hodges trilogy. For nearly six years, in Room 217 of the Lakes Region Traumatic Brain Injury Clinic, Brady Hartsfield has been in a persistent vegetative state. A complete recovery seems unlikely for the insane perpetrator of the 'Mercedes Massacre', in which eight people were killed and many more maimed for life. But behind the vacant stare, Brady is very much awake and aware, having been pumped full of experimental drugs...scheming, biding his time as he trains himself to take full advantage of the deadly new powers that allow him to wreak unimaginable havoc without ever leaving his hospital room. Brady Hartsfield is about to embark on a new reign of terror against thousands of innocents, hell-bent on taking revenge against anyone who crossed his path-with retired police detective Bill Hodges at the very top of that long list....

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "This is one of those books that will stay with me for a very long time. Absolutely unforgettable, and easily one of the best reading experiences I've had in years!"; "Late period King continues to impress me. I really loved how it tied into The Shining, the mix of supernatural/technology, and how much I cared for Bill and Holly by the end of the book. That last one, especially wowed me. King really filled their characters out with skill and panache. A great end to the trilogy."; "What a great finish to this trilogy! I love how everything was brought full circle and the ending was moving and satisfying. A fantastic read."
