A dark and electrifying novel about addiction, fanaticism, and what might exist on the other side of life In a small New England town, over half a century ago, a shadow falls over a small boy playing in the yard with his toy soldiers. Jamie Morton looks up to see a striking man, the new minister. Rev- erend Charles Jacobs, along with his beautiful wife, will transform the local church. The men and boys are all a bit in love with Mrs. Jacobs; the women and girls feel the same about Reverend Jacobs- including Jamie's mother and beloved sister, Claire. With Jamie, the Reverend shares a deeper bond based on a secret obsession. When tragedy strikes the Jacobs family, this charismatic preacher curses God, mocks all religious belief, and is banished from the shocked town. Jamie has demons of his own. Wed to his guitar from the age of thirteen, he plays in bands across the country, living the nomadic lifestyle of bar- band rock and roll while fleeing from his family's horrific loss. In his mid-thirties-addicted to heroin, stranded, desperate--Jamie meets Charles Jacobs again, with profound conse- quences for both men. Their bond becomes a pact beyond even the Devil's devising, and Jamie discovers that "revival" has many meanings. This rich and disturbing novel spans five decades on its way to the most terrifying conclu- sion Stephen King has ever written. It's a masterpiece from King, brilliantly illustrating why he "is right at the center of an American literary taproot that goes all the way down . . . to Haw- thorne, to Poe, to Melville" (Margaret Atwood, The New York Times Book Review).
