Cover, Release Date & Excerpt from Stephen King’s Upcoming Novel BILLY SUMMERS
Stephen King fans can look forward to owning his next novel, Billy Summers, beginning August 3rd via Scribner. Our friends at Entertainment Weekly just broke the news, which includes a look at the book’s cover and an excerpt!
Synopsis:
Billy Summers concerns a killer for hire and the best in the business. But he’ll do the job only if the target is a truly bad guy. And now Billy wants out. But first, there is one last hit. Billy is among the best snipers in the world, a decorated Iraq war vet, a Houdini when it comes to vanishing after the job is done. So what could possibly go wrong? How about everything.
Excerpt:
“Two million. Five hundred thousand up front, the rest after.”
Billy’s whistle isn’t part of the act, which he doesn’t think of as an act but his dumb self, the one he shows to guys like Nick and Frank and Paulie. It’s like a seatbelt. You don’t use it because you expect to be in a crash, but you never know who you might meet coming over a hill on your side of the road. This is also true on the road of life, where people veer all over the place and drive the wrong way on the turnpike.
