    If not from a source then a very educated guess, I'd say.

    I do not think this evil king moves away from traditional horror genre, when you personally experience many stories and novels of genres that are not classic terror.

    The night after the King appearance in Toronto some old lady struck about 20 cars before knocking over a power line. I haven't seen any explanation in the press as to what happened. Maybe she is Mrs. Mercedes.

    Seems June 2014 is confirmed for this novel. CD has the ISBN (978-1476754451) and page length (500): http://www.cemeterydance.com/page/CDP/PROD/o_king100 But I can't find any other confirmation, other than a page at Amazon Japan.

    Was an excellent, very smooth event. One of these a year would rock my world.
    BTW was great to meet you, even tho I still think we've met before...

    Colorado was worse. Not a whole lot of signed books compared to attendees.
    But the event itself was pretty good and was great hanging out with members

    I actually think this is a story that would go better with the "Hard Case Crime" line over Joyland (unless they only do certain lengths, Joyland and Colorado Kid are both pretty small).

    Here's the official plot summary, hidden in case you don't want to know anything more.

    Spoiler:
    In a mega-stakes, high-suspense race against time, three of the most unlikely and winning heroes Stephen King has ever created try to stop a lone killer from blowing up thousands.

    In the frigid pre-dawn hours, in a distressed Midwestern city, hundreds of desperate unemployed folks are lined up for a spot at a job fair. Without warning, a lone driver plows through the crowd in a stolen Mercedes, running over the innocent, backing up, and charging again. Eight people are killed; fifteen are wounded. The killer escapes.

    In another part of town, months later, a retired cop named Bill Hodges is still haunted by the unsolved crime. When he gets a crazed letter from someone who self-identifies as the “perk” and threatens an even more diabolical attack, Hodges wakes up from his depressed and vacant retirement, hell-bent on preventing another tragedy.

    Brady Hartfield lives with his alcoholic mother in the house where he was born. He loved the feel of death under the wheels of the Mercedes, and he wants that rush again. Only Bill Hodges, with a couple of highly unlikely allies, can apprehend the killer before he strikes again. And they have no time to lose, because Brady’s next mission, if it succeeds, will kill or maim thousands.

    Mr. Mercedes is a war between good and evil, from the master of suspense whose insight into the mind of this obsessed, insane killer is chilling and unforgettable.
