Although this second installment in a planned trilogy by Stephen King is an improvement over the first, the parade of cliches and tin-eared dialogue marks it as a true sibling to Mr. Mercedes. On page 268, the reader finds: "A week from now, all this will be over, he tells himself. The thought brings him some comfort," and thinks: "One-hundred and sixty-three pages from now, all this will be over. The thought brings him some comfort."
