Colorado Kid

Returning to shelves after eighteen years, in a stylish new edition. A man's body is found on a beach on Moose-Lookit Island. Police believe his death is easily explained, but local journalists sense there's more to it. Together with a newly arrived intern, the men delve into the story of the Colorado Kid, who turns out to be a graphic designer employed at an advertising agency. However, this is only the beginning of the mystery. The amateur detectives learn more and more about the deceased, but each new detail leads them to understand less and less. Stephen King (born 1947) is called the King of Horror. He has written over sixty award-winning books, and Carrie (1974) catapulted him to fame and catapulted him from laundry worker to America's richest writer. This book launched a string of bestsellers, including the cult classic Salem's Lot (1975), The Shining (1977), The Stand (1978), the Dark Tower series (1982-2012), Pet Sematary (1983), It (1986), Misery (1987), The Green Mile (1996), Dallas 63 (2011), and his latest novels, Billy Summers (2021) and Holly (2023). King's works, which blend horror, science fiction, suspense, thriller, and fantasy, have sold hundreds of millions of copies and have been translated into dozens of languages. They have also been adapted into numerous films. King lives in Maine with his wife, Tabitha King. He has a daughter and two sons with writers Owen King (Sleeping Beauties) and Joe Hill (Locke & Key).
