Following the successful launch of our new Classic King range with CARRIE, comes a beautiful hardback edition of King's second published novel, 'SALEM'S LOT, produced for the fiftieth Anniversary with a new introduction by Joe Hill.
'Salem's Lot is a small New England town with white clapboard houses, tree-lined streets and solid church steeples. Of course there are tales of strange happenings - but no more than in any other such town.
Ben Mears has returned to the Lot to write a novel and exorcise the terrors that have haunted him since childhood - since the event he witnessed at the Marsten House.
He finds the house has been rented by a newcomer, a man who causes Ben some unease. And then things start to happen: a child disappears, a dog is brutally killed - nothing unusual, except the list keeps growing . . .

Popular fiction's most prolific terror-monger's...genius remains in the conjuring of evil out of ephemera, of a malevolent universe lurking behind the Walmart shopping trolley banality of every day, small town America * The Times *
