Mr. Mercedes by Stephen King
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
An excellent crime-thriller, Stephen King charts into new territory and shines. An unlikely trio of a detective, a teenager and a mentally unstable woman cracks the case of a psychotic serial killer out on a rampage killing innocent youngsters at job fairs and music concerts.
Initially the first 100 pages starts off at a slow pace and gradually builds builds the tension in the plot. The last 100 pages were a nerve-wracking and nail-biting page turner. Thoroughly enjoyed this. Have great expectations from the next two in the series. The only reason it cost a star in this review was that the story was so straightforward, without too many twists and turns, which is my type of a crime-thriller..
