Billy Summers de Stephen King

Billy Summers: Larger Print

Autor Stephen King
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 aug 2021
#1 New York Times Bestseller From legendary storyteller Stephen King, whose "restless imagination is a power that cannot be contained" (The New York Times Book Review), comes a thrilling new novel about a good guy in a bad job. Billy Summers is a man in a room with a gun. He's a killer for hire and the best in the business. But he'll do the job only if the target is a truly bad guy. And now Billy wants out. But first there is one last hit. Billy is among the best snipers in the world, a decorated Iraq war vet, a Houdini when it comes to vanishing after the job is done. So what could possibly go wrong? How about everything. This spectacular can't-put-it-down novel is part war story, part love letter to small town America and the people who live there, and it features one of the most compelling and surprising duos in King fiction, who set out to avenge the crimes of an extraordinarily evil man. It's about love, luck, fate, and a complex hero with one last shot at redemption. You won't put this story down, and you won't forget Billy.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
The perfect crime doesn't exist. The perfect getaway . . . that's another story.

Billy Summers is a killer for hire. He's among the best snipers in the world, a decorated Iraq war vet who can blend into any neighbourhood and disappear after the shot is taken. But he'll only agree to a contract if the target is a truly bad guy.

Now Billy wants out. But first he's offered one final job - an offer which is just too big to refuse.

As the days count down to the hit, Billy senses something is wrong. He doesn't yet know just how wrong, or about the woman who will help him try to set things right.

Part thriller, part war story, part lyrical portrait of small-town America, Billy Summers is about a good man in a bad job, with one last shot at redemption

'A compelling and engrossing read' - Sunday Express

'Adventurously shape-shifting yet always disciplined . . . dazzling' - The Sunday Times

Recenzii

A dazzlingly shapeshifting novel that, like its antihero, only pretends to be easy to pigeonhole. Disciplined but adventurous, equally good at action scenes and in-depth psychology
A thriller with a surprisingly heartfelt and redemptive ending, Billy Summers is a compelling and engrossing read
King's killer instinct hits the mark again... Without abandoning his blood-chilling propensities, he has transformed himself into one of the most adroit and accomplished crime writers in the US. King has negotiated the shifting of gears with the kind of panache that befits the "ultimate storyteller" (for once, publisher hyperbole is justified).
His best book in years . . . He may always be considered a horror novelist, but King is doing the best work of his later career when the ghosts are packed away and the monsters are all too human
Storytelling genius
Adventurously shape-shifting yet always disciplined, it's a dazzling return to form
Devoured it ... it's such a page-turner
It's a novel with a heart-stopping, heartfelt conclusion
Stephen King is primarily known as a master of horror, but at heart he is a hardcore thriller writer
A cracking noir
A brilliantly enjoyable novel with a thrilling conclusion
Stephen King combines a story of corruption in high places with a lyrical portrait of small-town life and a bittersweet love story
Disciplined but adventurous, equally good at action scenes and psychology, King shows with this novel that, at 74, he's . . . at the top of his game
[An] excellent crime caper
