Summary
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kills his idol and empties his safe of cash, but the real haul is a collection of notebooks containing John Rothstein's unpublished work - including at least one more Jimmy Gold novel.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.

Summary
Así comienza la fascinante novela de Stephen King sobre un lector fanático. El genio es John Rothstein, un autor de culto, creador del personaje de Jimmy Gold. Morris Bellamy está fuera de sí, no solo porque Rothstein haya dejado de escribir, sino también porque considera que el inconformista Jimmy Gold se ha vendido para dedicarse a la publicidad. Morris decide matar a Rothstein y vacía su caja fuerte para llevarse no solo todo el dinero sino además el verdadero tesoro: los cuadernos de notas de otra novela protagonizada por Jimmy Gold. Morris lo esconde todo y al día siguiente acaba en la cárcel por otro crimen terrorífico. Décadas más tarde un chico llamado Pete Saubers encuentra el tesoro y ahora son él y su familia a quienes han de salvar Bill Hodges, Holly Gibney y Jerome Robinson del vengativo y trastornado Morris cuando salga de la cárcel tras treinta y cinco años encerrado.
