In Bag of Bones, Stephen King weaves an eerie and emotionally charged story about loss, memory, and the supernatural.
Four years after the sudden death of his wife, novelist Mike Noonan retreats to their summer home in Maine, seeking solitude and inspiration. Instead, he finds himself drawn into a chilling mystery involving a widowed young mother, her daughter, and the restless spirit of something — or someone — that refuses to stay buried. Bag of Bones is Stephen King at his most atmospheric and emotionally resonant.
