This isn't a King title that you hear a lot about so I went in not knowing the sort of vibe I was going to get at all, and I really enjoyed it! I definitely had a movie playing out in my head, with most of the characters, certainly all of the main ones, clearly defined. I especially appreciated the depiction of the main relationship between the two main characters, which served to add emotional impact to what was more of an entertaining, faster-paced thriller/action-movie style read.
