Description
The sequel to the bestselling „Lśnienie”!
Do you remember Danny, the little boy with an extraordinary gift? The boy tormented by ghosts? The boy trapped with his possessed father in an empty hotel? „Doktor Sen” tells the story of what happened next.
A group of elderly people calling themselves the True Knot travel the highways of America in search of sustenance. They seem harmless: retirees dressed in polyester, inseparable from their campers. But Dan Torrance already knows, and the resourceful twelve-year-old Abra Stone will soon find out, that the True Knot are almost immortal beings who feed on a substance produced by tortured children who have the same gift as Dan.
Haunted by the residents of the Overlook Hotel, where he spent one terrible winter as a child, Dan drifts around America for decades, trying to shake off the burden of hopelessness, alcoholism and violence that he inherited from his father. He finally finds his place in a small town in New Hampshire, in a supportive Alcoholics Anonymous group and in a nursing home, where the remnant of his powers from childhood lets him bring comfort to the dying in their final moments. He becomes known as Doctor Sleep.
When Dan meets the ethereal Abra Stone, her extraordinary gift awakens the demons slumbering within him and compels him to fight for her soul and her survival. It is a heroic struggle between good and evil, a bloody, sweeping tale that will delight millions of fans of „Lśnienie” and satisfy anyone only now entering the world of this already classic title in King's body of work.
