Master storyteller Stephen King, whose “restless imagination is a power that cannot be contained” (The New York Times Book Review), presents an unforgettable and relentless #1 New York Times bestseller about a good guy in a bad job.
Chances are, if you’re a target of Billy Summers, two immutable truths apply: You’ll never even know what hit you, and you’re really getting what you deserve. He’s a killer for hire and the best in the business—but he’ll do the job only if the assignment is a truly bad person. But now, time is catching up with him, and Billy wants out. Before he can do that though, there’s one last hit, which promises a generous payday at the end of the line even as things don’t seem quite on the level here. Given that Billy is among the most talented snipers in the world, a decorated Iraq war vet, and a virtual Houdini when it comes to vanishing after the job is done, what could possibly go wrong? How about everything.
Part war story and part love letter to small-town America and the people who live there, this spectacular thriller of luck, fate, and love will grip readers with its electrifying narrative, as a complex antihero with one last shot at redemption must avenge the crimes of an extraordinarily evil man. You won’t ever forget this stunning novel from master storyteller Stephen King…and you will never forget Billy.

The first book by Stephen King this year, Later, was fantastic. In fact, it is still in first place for my book of the year. After finishing, I set my eyes toward this book, Billy Summers. And in my opinion, Later was the better book. I am kind of disappointed, as I didn't like this book as much as I'd hoped. It had alot of good moments. All of Billy's back story was very interesting. But almost everything that happened before Alice showed up was pretty slow. Alice was a joy to the story, despite the horrors she experienced. She was, to me, the best part of the book. I really didn't care for the ending either. Overall, it was ok, better than alot of the books I read this year, but there were others I enjoyed much more.
