    Desperation is the story of several people traveling along the desolate Highway 50 in Nevada who all get abducted by Collie Entragian, the deputy of the fictional mining town of Desperation. Entragian uses various pretexts for his abductions, from an arrest for drug possession to “rescuing” a family from a nonexistent gunman.

    Opening bid: $75.00
    Auction begins: 2/17/10

    Desperation is spelled wrong in the thread title. Were there random remarques in the books when they were originally sold by Grant?

    Thanks! I get in a hurry, its fixed now.

    I am not sure on the other question, Don signed this one specifically for us so I think it was originally sold without a signature.
