Description
我開始相信，那一場意外絕不是偶然，
而是這座小島蟄伏已久的秘密企圖......
原本一帆風順的人生竟然就這樣在十二秒中戛然而止！那架倒下的起重機不但讓建築商艾德格失去了右臂，還讓他失去了記憶，從此陷入痛苦的復健過程，他的婚姻也因此告終。艾德格不禁希望自己當初能在意外中一死百了，他的心理醫生建議他離開傷心地，並重拾畫筆做為逃離暗夜的避風港。
艾德格賣掉公司，來到千里之外溫暖的佛羅里達州，在杜馬島上租了一棟海邊小屋調養受創的身心。他在島上結交了一位好友懷爾曼，一個不願提起傷心往事的半盲男子；還遇見了伊莉莎白，一個與杜馬島的秘密有著密切關聯的失智老婦。
艾德格的斷臂處不時會出現搔癢難耐的幻覺，而這股幻覺更驅使他開始瘋狂地作畫。他的畫作獲得了畫廊的賞識，並為他舉辦個展。但艾德格爆發的才華是一項奇蹟，也是一項武器，而且有時候是他無法控制的。就當伊莉莎白封存的記憶被重新揭開時，隱藏在杜馬島過去裡的暗影也開始蠢蠢欲動......
愛的救贖、回憶的謎團、超自然的危險本質以及創作的療癒力量......故事大師史蒂芬．金的最新力作既扣人心弦，更令人目眩神迷，再次讓我們忍不住掩卷讚嘆！

the rattling of shells, the sunset sketches, the unheard voices, the creepy dolls. everything here scared me. specially the few last parts. reading this book felt like something which we can't see or explain has always been here for many years or decades, believing in supernatural activities when we were kids was easy, but after we grow up, we tend to not speak about that or ignore it for the best, but in this book, the thing has found its way to come back, to haunt, to disturb, to kill I love reading horror books, and this has given me some creeps. loved the detailed part of his paintings and the bond between Edgar and his daughter. only disappointing thing for me was the size, it stretched too long. I know this is one of the way of King's novels but among all the books I've read so far from him, this really took a long way to buildup the world.
