Holly (slovensky) – King Stephen (2024)

Holly Gibney is back and has come a long way. From a shy yet brave loner, she first became a partner in Bill Hodges's detective agency and ultimately a completely independent, sharp, and sometimes quite tough private investigator. In the new King novel, she must face two unimaginably depraved and brilliantly inconspicuous adversaries all on her own. When Penny Dahl reaches out to the Stratení nájdení detective agency in hopes of finding her missing daughter, Holly is not very inclined to take the case. Her colleague Pete has contracted COVID, her mother, with whom she had a complicated relationship, recently passed away, and she has a long-planned vacation ahead of her. However, something in Penny Dahl's desperate voice prevents her from refusing. Just a few blocks from where Bonnie Dahl disappeared, college professors Rodney and Emily Harris reside. This esteemed eighty-year-old couple is bound by devoted love in their lifelong marriage, but also by a dark secret. What lies behind the walls of their basement, and how is it connected to Bonnie? To crack this nut, Holly must exert all her patience and intelligence, or she risks danger.
