Check out the review of this book here:
Summary
Bill Hodges, a retired detective who now owns the private investigative firm Finders Keepers with his sidekick Holly, is diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
With only a few months to live, he finds himself sucked into a recent suicide spree. All of the deceased have one thing in common: they were all in contact with mass murderer Brady Hartsfield, the infamous Mr. Mercedes who, six years ago, intended a follow-up mass murder by blowing up a rock concert venue crowded with youngsters.
Brady's ambitions were foiled by Hodges and Holly, who put him in a coma and he never recovered consciousness.
Many staff members at the hospital where Brady is now being treated say that he is recuperating at an unbelievable rate and that he may be faking his injuries to evade prosecution for his crimes. Meanwhile, all individuals who have come near to establishing this notion appear to have committed suicide.
Brady discovered himself obtaining new skills after his head injury, including the capacity to maneuver small things with his thoughts and the ability to enter the bodies of specific persons vulnerable to his mental dominance.
Brady, who is still in a hospital bed, has utilized his power to complete his homicidal task by developing a hypnotic video game software that increases the user's vulnerability. Once the users are under Brady's influence, he utilizes the software to manipulate their brains and encourage them to commit suicide.
The teens who avoided death when Brady's plot to demolish the music venue failed are the targets.
Brady's ultimate purpose, on the other hand, is to entice Hodges into the game and exact retribution.
Brady employs the bodies of a corrupt neurosurgeon and a hospital librarian as puppets and red herrings to perform his dirty work and misdirect the police while making his last attempt to kill Hodges, all the while ignorant that Hodges is already racing against the clock towards his own death.
