Veinte años atrás, por una apuesta infantil, Ben Mears entró en la casa de los Marsten. Y lo que vio entonces aún recorre sus pesadillas. Ahora, como escritor consagrado, vuelve a Salem's Lot para exorcizar sus fantasmas. Salem's Lot es un pueblo tranquilo y adormilado donde nunca pasa nada..., excepto la antigua tragedia de la casa de los Marsten. Y el perro muerto colgado de la verja del cementerio. Y el misterioso hombre que se instaló en la casa de los Marsten.

Review of "'Salem's Lot" on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

2.5 stars. I liked the main characters, especially Mark and Ben, but it was rather relentlessly depressing in multiple ways. The main story is one bad thing after another, but the side characters beating eachother and hitting their babies, horrible pervy men and rape scenes... All that felt very unnecessary and without nuance. I recently read The Outsider, in which arguably the victims are worse off - but the overall story is more optimistic and I enjoyed it a lot more. I guess that's the difference between a second book and a 58th book!
