DUMA KEY

By Stephen King: A change of venue for the master, a novel set in Florida(!) instead of Maine. To me, this made it more enjoyable since many of the locales I've been to or through over the years that I've been here in Florida. Edgar Freemantle moves to Duma Key after a near fatal accident (or was it?) in which he loses one arm and survives a partially crushed skull. On the up-side, he finds a talent for drawing, and later painting which he wasn't aware he had. At the height of his success, everything goes to hell...and that's all I can tell you without ruining it for you.
Great book, hurry up and read it before the movies fuck it up...
