After watching the television show, Haven, and each week seeing that it was adapted from this book I decided to read it. The TV show is very loosely based on the book, i.e. using the name Colorado Kid is about it. This is a different book for Stephen King and has been his entry, by invitation, into the "hardboiled crime fiction" genre. The book deals with the discovery of a body on a beach and the subsequent investigation in trying to identify the body and determine the cause of death. Some people will not like the book as there are still many unanswered questions after the book is finished. For me, this allowed my imagination to come up with any number of possible scenarios that would provide a resolution to the mystery. I loved the way the story was told by newspaper reporters well after the event, a matter of years.Read full review
