Doctor Sleep

King, Stephen, 1947-2014
Books
Following a childhood haunted by terrifying events at the Overlook Hotel, Dan Torrance has been drifting for decades. Finally, he settles into a job at a nursing home where he draws on his remnant 'shining' power to provide comfort to the dying. Aided by a prescient cat, he becomes 'Doctor Sleep'. Then he meets Abra Stone, a girl with the brightest 'shining' ever seen. But her gift is attracting the merciless Rose the Hat and her followers, the True Knot. They may look like harmless folk who are devoted to their campers and RVs, but in their twisted quest for immortality they live off the 'steam' that children like Abra produce. Now Dan must call on his powers once more - facing his fears and reawakening ghosts from his past as he battles for Abra's soul and survival.
