    About this ebook

    Mr. Mercedes by Stephen King | Conversation Starters

    Mr. Mercedes, Stephen King’s first book in a detective trilogy featuring Bill Hodges, tells the story of an investigator forced out of retirement after receiving an anonymous letter from a serial killer. Calling himself only as the “Mercedes Killer,” the letter, meant to push the detective to the edge and commit suicide, described classified details of a case that Hodges was unable to solve during his active years. Knowing that it is now up to him to solve the case and put his mind at rest, Hodges together with a 17-year old tech geek, Jerome and the niece of a former flame, race against time to put the “Mercedes Killer” down before he strikes again.
    In 2015, the Mystery Writers of America gave Mr. Mercedes the Edgar Award for Best Novel. It also became the Goodreads Choice Awards for the Mystery and Thriller category the previous year.
