Nos4a2 by Joe Hill

NOS4A2 is a spine-tingling novel of supernatural suspense from master of horror Joe Hill, the New York Times bestselling author of Heart-Shaped Box and Horns.

Victoria McQueen has a secret gift for finding things: a misplaced bracelet, a missing photograph, answers to unanswerable questions. On her Raleigh Tuff Burner bike, she makes her way to a rickety covered bridge that, within moments, takes her wherever she needs to go, whether it's across Massachusetts or across the country.

Charles Talent Manx has a way with children. He likes to take them for rides in his 1938 Rolls-Royce Wraith with the NOS4A2 vanity plate. With his old car, he can slip right out of the everyday world, and onto the hidden roads that transport them to an astonishing - and terrifying - playground of amusements he calls "Christmasland."

 

Then, one day, Vic goes looking for trouble--and finds Manx. That was a lifetime ago. Now Vic, the only kid to ever escape Manx's unmitigated evil, is all grown up and desperate to forget. But Charlie Manx never stopped thinking about Victoria McQueen. He's on the road again and he's picked up a new passenger: Vic's own son.

Exclusive to the print editions of NOS4A2 are more than 15 illustrations by award-winning Locke & Key artist Gabriel Rodríguez.

Joe Hill is the author of The Fireman and Heart-Shaped Box, which were both #1 New York Times bestsellers. Horns, his second novel, was adapted into a feature film starring Daniel Radcliffe, and NOS4A2, his third, will be adapted into an AMC television series. 20th Century Ghosts, his collection of short stories, won the Bram Stoker Award and the British Fantasy Award for Best Collection. Odd Weather, a collection of novellas, was published in the autumn of 2017 and is his most recent work. With his long-running comic book series Locke & Key, which features the eye-popping art of Gabriel Rodriguez, he won the Eisner Award for Best Writer. In the not-too-distant future, that one will be a Netflix show.
