About this listen

The spectacular finale to the New York Times best-selling trilogy that began with Mr. Mercedes (winner of the Edgar Award) and Finders Keepers

2017 Audie Award Finalist for Fiction and Best Male Narrator

In End of Watch, the diabolical "Mercedes Killer" drives his enemies to suicide, and if Bill Hodges and Holly Gibney don't figure out a way to stop him, they'll be victims themselves.

In Room 217 of the Lakes Region Traumatic Brain Injury Clinic, something has awakened. Something evil. Brady Hartsfield, perpetrator of the Mercedes Massacre, where eight people were killed and many more were badly injured, has been in the clinic for five years, in a vegetative state. According to his doctors, anything approaching a complete recovery is unlikely. But behind the drool and stare, Brady is awake and in possession of deadly new powers that allow him to wreak unimaginable havoc without ever leaving his hospital room.

Retired police detective Bill Hodges, the unlikely hero of Mr. Mercedes and Finders Keepers, now runs an investigation agency with his partner, Holly Gibney - the woman who delivered the blow to Hartsfield's head that put him in the brain injury ward. When Bill and Holly are called to a suicide scene with ties to the Mercedes Massacre, they find themselves pulled into their most dangerous case yet, one that will put their lives at risk as well as those of Bill's heroic young friend, Jerome Robinson, and his teenage sister, Barbara. Brady Hartsfield is back and planning revenge not just on Hodges and his friends but on an entire city.

In End of Watch, Stephen King brings the Hodges trilogy to a sublimely terrifying conclusion, combining the detective fiction of Mr. Mercedes and Finders Keepers with the heart-pounding supernatural suspense that has been his best-selling trademark. The result is an unnerving look at human vulnerability and chilling suspense. No one does it better than King.

This is how it is done

So often when I rate a book I anguish over the how many stars, and this is one of those books that it takes no time to rate it 5, Stephen King writing,with Will Patton narration SUPERB. I was sorry to see this series end, it is hard to say goodbye to favorite characters. Hopefully Holly and Jerome will be revived in another series.

A great ending to a fantastic trilogy!

Mr . Mercedes got me hooked; Finders Keepers was slow to keep my interest but continued to build upon the story quite well; and End of Watch brings the story full circle proving once again that once that Stephen King is one of the greatest storytellers and writers of our time.

The narration was a touch slow in certain spots

I have read the complete trilogy, enjoyed all of them. The only problem that I had was that I felt that the narration was a bit slow in certain spots. I did, however, like the way the narrator portrayed the different characters with his voice.

Awesome series

Great ending to a great series, loved all of the books in this series. They aren't so much horror as they are psychological thrillers.

This is a masterful conclusion

Will Patton narrates the final(?) tale in this trilogy brilliantly, bringing the characters to life. Why the question mark? The ending appeared to dispose of the horrific Brady Hartzfeld, but there remains that opening for ongoing mayhem. While you could read this independent of the other books in the series, it will be best to read "Mr. Mercedes" and "Finders Keepers" first.
