“Don’t let the sentient malevolent car, the New England wormholes, or the supernatural kid killers fool you. This is not Stephen King, but his son Joe Hill, and he’s scary in a way that King has not been in 10 years (sorry, SK, but it’s true). As a kid, Vic McQueen discovers an ability to ride her bike from her backyard to faraway places. On one of her impossible trips, she encounters impossible-to-kill child abductor Charlie Manx. When Manx takes Vic’s own child, Vic follows him to the dreadful theme park he calls Christmasland. Drawing both on children’s fears and on the ways in which children can be terrifying, Hill makes this kidnapping tale unforgettably chilling. ”

“This audiobook is narrated by Kate Mulgrew, and she is AMAZING. A wonderfully written book - 4 1/2 stars easy. But with Kate narrating? Automatic 5. This is a story about a child who experiences something fantastic. But, like most of us, that fantasy is buried and lost in the reality of her life and adulthood. At 17, Vic goes looking for trouble and finds it in Charlie Manx. A creepy serial killer who kidnaps children and takes them to a horror land he calls “Christmas Town”. She escapes him once, but he comes back to threaten her family, and her sanity.”

The spine-tingling, bone-chilling novel of supernatural suspense from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Fireman and Horns—now an AMC original series starring Zachary Quinto, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Ashleigh Cummings.
""A masterwork of horror.""—
TimeVictoria McQueen has an uncanny knack for finding things: a misplaced bracelet, a missing photograph, answers to unanswerable questions. When she rides her bicycle over the rickety old covered bridge in the woods near her house, she always emerges in the places she needs to be.
Charles Talent Manx has a gift of his own. He likes to take children for rides in his 1938 Rolls-Royce Wraith with the vanity plate NOS4A2. In the Wraith, he and his innocent guests can slip out of the everyday world and onto hidden roads that lead to an astonishing playground of amusements he calls Christmasland. The journey across the highway of Charlie's twisted imagination transforms his precious passengers, leaving them as terrifying and unstoppable as their benefactor.
Then comes the day when Vic goes looking for trouble...and finds her way to Charlie. That was a lifetime ago. Now, the only kid ever to escape Charlie's evil is all grown up and desperate to forget. But Charlie Manx hasn't stopped thinking about Victoria McQueen. On the road again, he won't slow down until he's taken his revenge. He's after something very special—something Vic can never replace.
As a life-and-death battle of wills builds, Vic McQueen prepares to destroy Charlie once and for all—or die trying.
