Finders Keepers by Stephen King, book review: Sequel sees a horror master reign again
Finders Keepers is a sequel of sorts to 2014's Mr Mercedes, a novel so in thrall to crime fiction conventions that, I guess, a series was an inevitability. King's recent torrential output has often felt like homage to the writers who formed his imagination but Mr Mercedes was so slavishly derivative that the prospect of more Bill Hodges (his hackneyed private eye) and more Brady Hartsfield (its absurd villain) felt as necessary as more Bernie in Weekend at Bernie's II.
