Stephen King, página 6 de 56

En Después del anochecer Stephen King reúne una colección de catorce relatos tan asombrosos como escalofriantes, que te obligarán a dormir con la luz de la mesilla encendida. Llámalo anochecer. Llámalo crepusculo. Llamalo ocaso. El atardecer es aquel momento en que el devenir humano toma derroteros sobrenaturales, aquel instante en que la luz se transfigura en tinieblas. Cuando el sol se esconde, la imaginacion comienza a deslizarse por sombras que derivan en la oscuridad mas absoluta y la luz del dia huye despavorida de la faz de la Tierra. Despues del anochecer es, en definitiva, el momento del dia perfecto para Stephen King.La critica ha dicho...King sigue empeñado en proporcionar a los lectores el placer exuberante de embeberse en la lectura de una historia.The New York Times

A cat-and-mouse suspense thriller featuring a retired homicide detective who's haunted by the few cases he left open, and by one in particular - the pre-dawn slaughter of eight people among hundreds gathered in line for the opening of a jobs fair when the economy was guttering out. Without warning, a lone driver ploughed through the crowd in a stolen Mercedes. The plot is kicked into gear when Bill Hodges receives a letter in the mail, from a man claiming to be the perpetrator. He taunts Hodges with the notion that he will strike again. Hodges wakes up from his depressed and vacant retirement, hell-bent on preventing that from happening. Brady Hartfield lives with his alcoholic mother in the house where he was born. And he's preparing to kill again. Only Hodges, with a couple of misfit friends, can apprehend the killer in this high-stakes race against time. Because Brady's next mission, if it succeeds, will kill or maim hundreds, even thousands.
