If It Bleeds

Description

The eagerly awaited paperback edition of the No. 1 bestselling hardcover featuring a stand-alone sequel to The Outsider, and three additional irresistible novellas.

News people have a saying: If it bleeds, it leads. And a bomb at Albert Macready Middle School is guaranteed to lead any bulletin.

Holly Gibney of the Finders Keepers detective agency is working on the case of a missing dog - and on her own need to be more assertive - when she sees the footage on TV. But when she tunes in again, to the late-night report, she realises something is not quite right about the correspondent who was first on the scene. So begins If It Bleeds, a stand-alone sequel to the No. 1 bestselling THE OUTSIDER featuring the incomparable Holly on her first solo case - and also the riveting title story in Stephen Kings brilliant new collection.

Dancing alongside are three more wonderful long stories from this formidably versatile author (The Sunday Times) - Mr Harrigans Phone, The Life of Chuck and Rat. All four display the richness of Kings storytelling with grace, humour, horror and breathtaking suspense. A fascinating Authors Note gives us a wonderful insight into the origin of each story and the writers unparalleled imagination.
