Doctor Sleep: A Novel

From master storyteller Stephen King, this unforgettable sequel to The Shining promises a chilling ride through the darker realms of the human psyche. An instant #1 New York Times bestseller, it immerses readers in a vivid frightscape that resonates long after the last page is turned, now brought to life in a major motion picture featuring Ewan McGregor.

Years after the terrifying events at the Overlook Hotel, Dan Torrance navigates a tumultuous life marked by the shadows of his past, including a father’s legacy of alcoholism and violence. Years of struggle lead him to find purpose at a local hospice, where he helps ease the pain of the dying. However, when he encounters twelve-year-old Abra Stone—whose shining power exceeds his own—Dan’s precarious existence spirals into danger from the ageless, predatory True Knot tribe. This confrontation not only threatens Abra’s life but also forces Dan to confront his haunting legacy.
