Morris and Pete share a common love….the loot that Morris stole - not the money, but the books….and they both want them for their own.

This story flips between Morris Bellamy (a thief, and murderer of a famous author) and Pete Stauber (a teenager who finds the loot that Morris hid before getting sent to prison for another crime). However, this trio do not actually “run” the book. This second novel again features Bill Hodges (retired detective), and his two side-kicks – now college-aged Jerome, and a 40-something neurotic Holly. Maybe the great thing.”įinders Keeps by Stephen King is the second in the Bill Hodges series. “End of watch is what they call it, but Hodges himself has found it impossible to give up watching.” Only this time, Bill is battling more than just Brady. So this is the story of how Retired Detective Bill Hodges, along with Holly, and Jerome, finally face Brady head-on. His life-long fascination with suicide is about to take center stage. Brady has found a new way to torment the world. But sometimes a bad penny keeps coming back. So now we get back Brady Hartsfield, Mr Mercedes himself, who has been in a vegetative state in the Brain Injury Clinic for the past 5 years, after Holly clubbed him before he could take down an arena full of kids at a rock concert. It still has the in-depth characters that King always creates, and in this one, a little bit of his usual craziness. I think a lot of people already have an idea how Stephen King writes, and so that is what they expect, and this series is different. Yes, this “mystery” series is a departure from King’s usual horror, but….

End of Watch by Stephen King is the final book in the Bill Hodges Trilogy.įirst, let me tell you, that although a lot of people didn’t like the first or the second in this series, I enjoyed the whole story - all three books.
