Helpful Score: 1

I'm not a huge Stephen King fan - not crazy about scary books - so I almost didn't read this one. I'm not even sure how it got on my bookshelf. But when I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. It's a story of survival - a little girl lost in the woods for days with only a walkman, a tuna sandwich, some chips, a bottle of water, and an amazing imagination. When her physical strength is all but gone, her imagination takes over, providing her hero, Red Sox pitcher, Tom Gordon, as an escort to safety. That is, until the "God of the Lost," who has stalked her throughout her dangerous journey, steps out of the woods to claim her.
