A spectacularly dark and electrifying novel about addiction,religion, music and what might exist on the other side of life.
In a small New England town,in the early 60s,a shadow falls over a small boy playing with his toy soldiers.Jamie Morton looks up to see a striking man,the new minister. Charles Jacobs along with his beautiful wife,will transform the local church.The men and boys are all a bit in love with Mrs Jacobs; the women and girls - including Jameie's mother and beloved sister - feel the same about Reverend Jacobs.With Jamie, the Reverend shares a deeper bond,based on their fascination with simple experiments in electricity.
Then tragedy strikes the Jacobs family; the preacher curses God,mocking all religious belief,and is banished from the shocked town.
Jamie has demons of his own.In his mid-thirties,he is living a nomadic lifestyle of bar-band rock and roll.Addicted to heroin,stranded,desperate,he sees Jacobs again - a showman on stage,creating dazzling 'portraits in lightning'.
Decades later,Jamie is living a nomadic lifestyle of bar-band rock and roll.Now an addict,he sees Jacobs again - a showman on stage,creating dazzling 'portraits in lightning' - and their meeting has profound consequences for both men.Their bond becomes a pact beyond even the Devil's devising,and Jamie discovers that revival has many meanings.Because for every cure there is a price. . .
This rich and disturbing novel spans five decades on its way to the most terrifying conclusion Stephen King has ever written. It's a masterpiece from King,in the great American tradition of Nathaniel Hawthorne and Edgar Allan Poe.
