On a very hot day in August of 1994, my wife told me she was going down to the Derry Rite Aid to pick up a refill on her sinus medicine prescription -- this is stuff you can buy over the counter these days, I believe.

Cuatro años después de la repentina muerte de su esposa Jo, el novelista Mike Noonan sigue presa de una terrible depresión y espantosas pesadillas. Busca refugio en su casa de veraneo, pero en ese lugar un hombre poderoso no tiene escrúpulos en manipular a la comunidad para conseguir sus siniestros propósitos. Mike se involucra en el enfrentamiento y se ve atrapado en el misterio de la casa, ahora escenario de visitas fantasmales y obsesiones cada vez más abominables...
Sólo el gran maestro del terror podía haber escrito esta embrujada historia de amor donde ni siquiera la muerte es capaz de separar a los amantes...

Work Description
Bag of Bones is a 1998 horror novel by American writer Stephen King. It focuses on an author who suffers severe writer's block and delusions at an isolated lake house four years after the death of his wife. It won the 1999 Bram Stoker Award for Best Novel, the 1999 British Fantasy Award for Best Novel, and the 1999 Locus Award for Best Dark Fantasy/Horror Novel. The book re-uses many basic plot elements of Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca, which is directly referenced several times in the book's opening pages; however, the relation of these elements (including a wife who is dead as the book opens, her posthumous effect on future romance, a drowning, and house haunted by the memories of previous inhabitants) to the plot and characters is markedly different. When the paperback edition of Bag of Bones was published by Pocket Books on June 1, 1999 (ISBN 978-0671024239).
