<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Stephen King's second novel, the classic vampire bestseller <i>'SALEM'S LOT</i>, tells the story of evil in small-town America.</b><br><b> </b><br>'Salem's Lot is a small New England town with white clapboard houses, tree-lined streets, and solid church steeples. That summer in 'salem's Lot was a summer of homecoming and return; spring burned out and the land lying dry, crackling underfoot. Late that summer, Ben Mears returned to 'salem's Lot hoping to cast out his own devils and found instead a new, unspeakable horror. <p/>A stranger had also come to the Lot, a stranger with a secret as old as evil, a secret that would wreak irreparable harm on those he touched and in turn on those they loved. <p/>All would be changed forever: Susan, whose love for Ben could not protect her; Father Callahan, the bad priest who put his eroded faith to one last test; and Mark, a young boy who sees his fantasy world become reality and ironically proves the best equipped to handle the relentless nightmare of 'Salem's Lot. <p/>This is a rare novel, almost hypnotic in its unyielding suspense, which builds to a climax of classic terror. You will not forget the town of 'salem's Lot nor any of the people who used to live here.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A master storyteller." --<i>The Los Angeles Times</i> <p/>"Stephen King has built a literary genre of putting ordinary people in the most terrifying situations. . . .
