Download Book Doctor Sleep (The Shining #2)
By Stephen King
Stephen King returns to the characters and territory of one of his most popular
novels ever, The Shining, in this instantly riveting novel about the now middle-
aged Dan Torrance (the boy protagonist of The Shining) and the very special 12-
year-old girl he must save from a tribe of murderous paranormals.On highways
across America, a tribe of people called The True Knot travel in search of
sustenance. They look harmless - mostly old, lots of polyester, and married to
their RVs. But as Dan Torrance knows, and spunky 12-year-old Abra Stone
learns, The True Knot are quasi-immortal, living off the "steam" that children
with the "shining" produce when they are slowly tortured to death.Haunted by
the inhabitants of the Overlook Hotel where he spent one horrific childhood
year, Dan has been drifting for decades, desperate to shed his father's legacy of
despair, alcoholism, and violence. Finally, he settles in a New Hampshire town,
an AA community that sustains him, and a job at a nursing home
