Duma Key Formats: Hardcover/Paperback/Audio/eBook/Kindle First Edition Release Date: January, 2008
Synopsis:
After a construction accident in which he loses his right arm and his divorce, Edgar Freemantle moves from Minnesota to Florida to begin what his psychiatrist described as a "geographic cure." He rediscovers his love of painting and finds that he is good at it but his paintings seem to have something "more" to them. On Duma Key he also finds a new friendship with Wireman, a kindred spirit seeking refuge there as a caretaker for Elizabeth Eastlake. Elizabeth's past also contains painful memories that have been reawakened bringing all of them together to face an evil entity named Perse.
One of my favorites. I was so absorbed by this book. Not since the Dark Tower series have I fell so deeply into the world contained in those pages. Excellent

I read Lisey's Story.It was complex with new language and the time lines challenged my attention span but i must say it was a rewarding read in the end.I felt i had been on a long journey.Then i read Duma Key.At first it seemed so simple i longed for Lisey's Story but that past and Stephen worked his story telling magic.I enjoyed both novels.Thanks.

This book is amazing. The author involves the reader inside the character's mind. I was absorbed by this book. I highly recommend it.
