“Wake up, genius.” So announces deranged fan Morris Bellamy to iconic author John Rothstein, who once created the famous character Jimmy Gold and hasn’t released anything since. Morris is livid, not just because his favorite writer has stopped publishing, but because Jimmy Gold ended up as a sellout. Morris kills his idol and empties his safe of cash, but the real haul is a collection of notebooks containing John Rothstein’s unpublished work...including at least one more Jimmy Gold novel. Morris hides everything away before being locked up for another horrific crime. But upon Morris’s release thirty-five years later, he’s about to discover that teenager Pete Saubers has already found the stolen treasure—and no one but former police detective Bill Hodges, along with his trusted associates Holly Gibney and Jerome Robinson, stands in the way of his vengeance....
*My Review*
I am a bit frustrated with myself as I didn't realize this was the 2nd book in The Bill Hodges Trilogy - 3 Book Series. I will now have to go and find the first book, Mr. Mercedes and then the final, End of a Watch so that I can have completion. I hate not reading a series in order. Normally I won't even start a series unless I have all the current books in it.
In any event, I enjoyed this book. It goes back and forth from the past to the present easily. It definitely reminded me of Stephen King's book Misery. Both feature a crazy reader who will stop at nothing to get more from an author (although I enjoyed Misery way more).
I was kept in suspense about what was going to happen to the notebooks that were stolen in the beginning. I never expected them to end up the way they did.
