Thinner

By Stephen King

The â??extraordinaryâ?? (Booklist) novel of one manâ??s quest to find the source of his nightmare and to reverse it before he becomesâ?¦nothing at all. This #1 national bestseller from Stephen King, writing as Richard Bachman, â??pulsates with evilâ?¦it will have you on the edge of your seatâ?? (Publishers Weekly). â??You canâ??t do anythingâ?¦ Itâ??s gone too far. You understand, Halleck? Tooâ?¦far. Attorney Billy Halleck seriously enjoys living his life of upper-class excess. Heâ??s got it all­â??an expensive home in Connecticut, a loving familyâ?¦and fifty extra pounds that his doctor repeatedly warns will be the death of him. Then, in a moment of carelessness, Halleck commits vehicular manslaughter when he strikes a jaywalking old woman crossing the street. But Halleck has some powerful local connections, and gets off with a slap on the wristâ?¦much to the fury of the womanâ??s mysterious and ancient father, who exacts revenge with a single word: â??Thinner.â?? Now a terrified Halleck finds the weight once so difficult to shed dropping effortlesslyâ??and rapidlyâ??by the week. Soon there will be nothing left of Billy Halleckâ?¦unless he can somehow locate the source of his living nightmare and reverse whatâ??s happened to him before he utterly wastes awayâ?¦
