He may have become the chief of police, but he’s still trying to heal the old wound of having given the testimony that sent his best friend, Vincent King, to prison decades before. And he's in overdrive protecting Duchess and her brother.

Sleeping beauties di Stephen King,Owen King. Traduttore: G. Arduino (Sperling & Kupfer)

Sleeping Beauties è una favola nera gloriosamente ricca di storie, idee, eventi e personaggi memorabili, che inizia con un C’era una volta a Dooling e termina con un finale degno dei King. Potente, provocatorio, sorprendente.

«Che cos’è successo a Kitty?»

«Ha urlato per metà della notte. Ora dorme.»

«Le è uscito qualcosa di comprensibile?»

«Sì, che la Regina Nera sta arrivando.»

Dooling è una piccola città fortunata del West Virginia, con una splendida vista sui monti Appalachi e lavoro per tutti. È a Dooling, infatti, che qualche anno fa è stato costruito un carcere all’avanguardia destinato solo alle donne, che siano prostitute o spacciatrici, ladre o assassine, o ancora tutte queste cose insieme. Ed è una di loro, in una notte agitata, ad annunciare l’arrivo della Regina Nera. Per il dottor Norcross, lo psichiatra della prigione, è routine, un sedativo dovrebbe sistemare tutto. Per sua moglie Lila, lo sceriffo di Dooling, poteva essere un presagio. Perché poche ore dopo, da una collina lì vicina, arriva una chiamata al 911, ed è una ragazza sconvolta a urlare nel telefono che una donna mai vista ha ammazzato i suoi due amici, con una forza sovrumana. Il suo nome è Evie Black. Intorno a lei svolazzano strane falene marroni e sembra venire da un altro mondo. Lo stesso, forse, dove le donne a poco a poco finiscono, addormentate da un’inquietante malattia del sonno che le sottrae agli uomini. Un sonno dal quale è meglio non svegliarle. Anonymous Content (casa di produzione di True Detective e Mr. Robot in TV e di Revenant e Spotlight al cinema) si è assicurata i diritti di Sleeping Beauties, per farne una serie con la collaborazione di Stephen e Owen King.

Fine turno di Stephen King. Traduttore: G. Arduino (Sperling & Kupfer)

Dopo Mr. Mercedes e Chi perde paga, King ha scritto l'atteso capitolo conclusivo della sua trilogia poliziesca, nella quale l'autore, come ci ha ormai abituato, combina il suo impareggiabile senso della suspense con uno sguardo lucidissimo sulla fragilità umana.

In un gelido lunedì di gennaio, Bill Hodges si è alzato presto per andare dal medico. Il dolore lo assilla da un po' e ha deciso di sapere da dove viene. Ma evidentemente non è ancora arrivato il momento: mentre aspetta pazientemente il suo turno, infatti, Bill riceve la telefonata di un vecchio collega che chiede il suo aiuto, e quello della socia Holly Gibney. Ha pensato a loro perché l'apparente caso di omicidio-suicidio che si è trovato per le mani ha qualcosa di sconvolgente: le due vittime sono Martine Stover e sua madre. Martine era rimasta completamente paralizzata nel massacro della Mercedes del 2009. Il killer, Brady Hartsfield, sembra voler finire il lavoro iniziato sette anni prima dalla camera 217 dell'ospedale dove tutti pensavano che sopravvivesse in stato vegetativo. Mentre invece la diabolica mente dell'Assassino della Mercedes non solo è vigile, ma ha acquisito poteri inimmaginabili, tanto distruttivi da mettere in pericolo l'intera città. Ancora una volta, Bill Hodges e Holly Gibney devono trovare un modo per fermare il mostro dotato di forza sovrannaturale. E a Hodges non basteranno l'intelligenza e il cuore. In gioco, c'è la sua anima. Dopo "Mr. Mercedes" e "Chi perde paga", King ha scritto il capitolo conclusivo della sua trilogia poliziesca, nella quale l'autore, come ci ha ormai abituato, combina il suo senso della suspense con uno sguardo lucidissimo sulla fragilità umana. Dalla trilogia di Bill Hodges sarà tratta una miniserie TV diretta da Jack Bender.
