Your typical S.King murder novel. It's written to fit into a series of "Hard Case Crimes" which is equivalent to "True Romance" type novels. Mostly formula written with a crime to solve or be solved. This one has a college age kid, Devin, getting over an almost girlfriend with whom he's never felt up or had sex. He's mooning over the relationship while working at a ferris wheel and funhouse type job with other wierd characters.
There is a little esp involved with a fortune teller and a child with MD. He gets involved in this childs life and with his mom for a very short time but she saves his life when the serial killer has Devin trapped on the ferris wheel ready to kill him.
There are many murders attributed to this guy after a friend of Dev's does some research about murders happening around carnivals so the killer does a little traveling around to mix it up. Very involved, hard to put down and keeps you guessing and wanting to read more. It's a small book (for a King novel) and you know the end is near but you'll be guessing the entire time who is who and what is what. Have fun with this one and take your time to make it last. Worth the money.
