Big Driver

De: Stephen King

Narrado por: Jessica Hecht

Serving as the basis for a Lifetime original movie, Stephen King's haunting story about an author of a series of mystery novels who tries to reconcile her old life with her life after a horrific attack and the one thing that can save her: Revenge.

Tess Thorne, a famous mystery writer, faces a long drive home following a book signing engagement. Advised to take a shortcut at the suggestion of the event’s planner, Tess sets out for home, well after dark. On a lonely stretch of New England road, her tire blows out, and when a man in a pick up stops, it is not to help her, but to repeatedly assault her and leave her for dead. Tess survives, and she plots a revenge that will bring her face-to-face with another stranger: the one inside herself, capable of gruesome violence.

This story was originally published in Stephen King’s acclaimed collection, Full Dark, No Stars.

Scarey

A classic justice and revenge story. The main character, Tess, is assaulted and left for dead. She arrives at a plan that carries the book through to the end. In the meantime, the GPS and the cat become integral characters in the revenge plot. It's a tense story and worth the short read.

Very great book from start to finish!!

Enjoyed this book from beginning to end. Job well done as expected by Stephen King

LOVE BIG DRIVER

At first I thought I wasn’t going to like the narrator. But she is perfect for this role! Her very sweet voice portrays a woman that we’d seldom see in King’s books. I almost didn’t buy it because it’s such a short novel. More of a novella. But I’ve listened to it three times over the last three years and it’s still a go-to for a satisfying read!

disturbing and riveting

Stephen King hasn't lost the ability to creep a reader out. Rape, murder, abandonment, revenge, mistaken identities - if it's horrible, this story has it. And a protagonist to root for, which is necessary to hold my interest. I was hoping for a bit more from the ending, but otherwise this is quite a satisfying listen.
