    Heloise considers it a blessing to be a person who seldom attracts attention. In her suburb, she's just a mom, the young widow with the forgettable job, who somehow never misses a soccer game. In the state capital, she's the redheaded lobbyist with a good cause and a mediocre track record. But in discreet hotel rooms throughout the area, she's the woman of your dreams - if you can afford the hourly fee. For more than a decade, Heloise believed she was safe, managing to keep up this rigidly compartmentalized life. But her secret life is under siege. One county over, another so-called suburban madam has been found dead in her car, an apparent suicide.

    A terrible accident takes Edgar Freemantle's right arm and scrambles his memory and his mind, leaving him with little but rage as he begins the ordeal of rehabilitation. When his marriage suddenly ends, Edgar begins to wish he hadn't survived his injuries. He wants out. His psychologist suggests a new life distant from the Twin Cities, along with something else.

    Story

    I enjoyed Stephen King's 11-22-63 so very, very much. I think I have been trying to replicate that listening experience with other Stephen King novels and it's not working. The plot to Duma Key looked intriguing when I read it. However, I didn't find the story compelling, nor did I find the main character very likeable. I believe true Stephen King fans would enjoy Duma Key. I think I was looking for something more.

    John Slattery always does a good job.
