Publisher's Synopsis
Classic blockbuster from King at the peak of his powers. Combining powerful elements from The Shining and Rebecca, BAG OF BONES is at once a first-rate suspense novel, a legal thriller, a haunted house story and a love story - it is King at his most accessible and compelling.

It's a community run by rich, tyrannical, wheelchair-bound Devore and his terrifying, skeletal female bookkeeper. Devore is hell-bent on getting custody of his grandchild. Three year old Kyra and her young mother, Mattie, turn to Mike for help - and Mike, besotted by Mattie, is powerless to resist. But there are others at Sara Laughs determined to prevent Mike's success - and Kyra can feel them too....
