Very different from typical King novels. Not horror, just a good old-fashioned murder mystery with reporters --- not police or detectives--- being the main truth seekers. 2 aging "journalists" for a small town weekly take a female intern under their wing and share the story of a still unsolved murder that still stirs the locals' imaginations years later. A nice example of seniors mentoring a newcomer to their career field. Enjoyed the local color thrown in also!
