Dr. Sleep

Grandmaster Stephen King returns to the characters and setting of one of his most popular thrillers ever: The Shining.

The boy Danny Torrance is now Dan, a middle-aged man still haunted by memories of the Overlook Hotel, where he spent a horrific winter of his youth. For decades he has drifted, trying to escape his father’s legacy of fear, alcoholism and violence. Eventually, Dan settles in a small town to use his gift for end-of-life care… they call him Dr. Sleep.

A group of people who call themselves the True Knot travel the highways of America. They look innocent - most of them are old and they drive around in campers. But Dan Torrance knows better, and twelve-year-old Abra Stone also makes the bizarre discovery that the members of the True Knot are apparently immortal. They live off the energy that is released when children who possess the Shining, or 'the light', slowly die. Abra and her spectacular gift - the brightest light ever - bring Dan's demons back to life and he must fight for Abra's soul and his own survival.

Dr. Sleep is an unparalleled tale of good versus evil, a must-read for the millions of fans of Stephen King and Stanley Kubrick's legendary adaptation of The Shining.
