Historia
In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis' parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there's no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents - telekinesis and telepathy - who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and 10-year-old Avery Dixon.

Historia
When Penny Dahl calls the Finders Keepers detective agency, hoping for help locating her missing daughter, Holly Gibney is reluctant to accept the case. Her partner, Pete, has Covid. Her (very complicated) mother has just passed away. And Holly is meant to be on leave. But something in Penny’s desperate voice makes it impossible to turn her down. Meanwhile, mere blocks from where Bonnie Dahl disappeared live Professors Rodney and Emily Harris. But they are also harboring a shocking, unholy secret.

Great Holly story read by Holly
Revisado: 09-23-23
When I first started listening, I sorely missed Will Patton, but then I recognized the voice—Justine Lupe from the Mr Mercedes series. She was awesome and i loved listening to “Holly” being read by “Holly”. Will was great for the Hodges trilogy, The outsider and If It Bleeds, but this is 100% a Holly story and I soaked it up.
I wanted to give everything 5 stars, but some of the covid stuff felt clunky and forced. I think there is a way to weave it in, however, it kind of just felt off.
The story was great and he has shaken the albatross of not being able to end a book. I’ve read/listened to the last 15 or so books (working my way backwards, kinda) and his characters are great and he is sticking the landings when they end.
I really enjoy everything that Holly is in and look forward to more. I would love to see King ghost write Jerome’s stories as well ad his sister Barbara’s poems. Hmmmm….

Historia
Raised in a world of flimflams, come-ons, and con-jobs, Beano Bates has done so well he's earned a spot on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted List.

For the first time in his legendary career, Beano wants more than a big score—he wants justice.

I have read this book 3 times…

And this is the first time listening to it. The audiobook was great and I’ll be damned if SJC wasn’t the best narrator I’ve listened to.
I guess I’m a sucker for cons and heists and this story is always a fun one to read (and listen to). Its a breezy, quick listen with a long con that will keep you guessing. The Bates’ family tree is something that would be fun to explore and the Reena Bros. are truly terrifying psychopaths that keep the stakes high.
