In this thrilling sequel to the New York Times bestselling novella by Stephen King and award-winning author Richard Chizmar, an adult Gwendy is summoned back to Castle Rock after the mysterious reappearance of the button box.

Something evil has swept into the small Maine town of Castle Rock on the heels of the latest winter storm. Sheriff Norris Ridgewick and his team are desperately searching for two missing girls, but time is running out.

In Washington, DC, thirty-seven-year-old Gwendy Peterson couldnā€™t be more different from the self-conscious teenaged girl who once spent a summer running up Castle Rockā€™s Suicide Stairs. That same summer, she had been entrustedā€”or some might say cursedā€”with the extraordinary button box by Richard Farris, the mysterious stranger in the black suit. The seductive and powerful box offered Gwendy small gifts in exchange for its care and feeding until Farris eventually returned, promising the young girl sheā€™d never see the box again.

One day, though, the button box suddenly reappears but this time, without Richard Farris to explain why, or what sheā€™s supposed to do with it. Between this and the troubling disappearances back in Castle Rock, Gwendy decides to return home. She just might be able to help rescue the missing girls and stop a dangerous madman before he does something ghastly.

With breathtaking and lyrical prose, Gwendyā€™s Magic Feather explores whether our lives are controlled by fate or the choices we make and what price we sometimes have to pay. Prepare to return again to Stephen Kingā€™s Castle Rock, the sleepy little town built on a bedrock of deep, dark secrets, just as itā€™s about to awaken from its quiet slumber once more.
