Summary
2017 Audie Award Finalist for Fiction and Best Male Narrator

Now an AT&T Audience Original Series

The fabulously suspenseful and 'smashing' (The New York Times Book Review) final novel in the Bill Hodges trilogy from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Mr. Mercedes and Finders Keepers!

For nearly six years, in Room 217 of the Lakes Region Traumatic Brain Injury Clinic, Brady Hartsfield has been in a persistent vegetative state. A complete recovery seems unlikely for the insane perpetrator of the “Mercedes Massacre,” in which eight people were killed and many more maimed for life. But behind the vacant stare, Brady is very much awake and aware, having been pumped full of experimental drugs...scheming, biding his time as he trains himself to take full advantage of the deadly new powers that allow him to wreak unimaginable havoc without ever leaving his hospital room. Brady Hartsfield is about to embark on a new reign of terror against thousands of innocents, hell-bent on taking revenge against anyone who crossed his path—with retired police detective Bill Hodges at the very top of that long list....

I loved it, the story is fabulous, and the story telling is wonderful. I love King and Patton! I am so sad for it to be over though.

Profile Avatar Razorette Jan 2025

Bravo Mr King! Bravo!!! Will Patton does a fantastic job narrating. Character voices are so good you can picture the person in your mind. Can’t wait to hear another by this dynamic duo.

Profile Avatar Desmond Jan 2023

Amazing ending to an awesome series! *Spoilers Upcoming - Warning* It's sad to see beloved characters get killed off or die however, it helps bring context to stroy telling. I actually read through these characters in specific Holly Gibbney backwards by reading Outsiders, If it Bleeds, and now the Bill Hodges series. As Bill was a stapled character mentioned throughout the books after he passed I see why Holly Gibney character embodied the persona of Bill. The development of Brady was masterful, as he became more sadistic the more he craved suicides. I look forward to see more from Herome and Holly in the future or just further development and linkage to Sycamore street as this series and Fairy Tale are set within.

The end of an era! RIP Bill Hodges! Another awesome read! I held it together until the very end and then cried (I knew I would!) I LOVE LOVE LOVE Holly Gibney! She’s my most favourite character (especially when Will Patton reads her!!) This book was a nice ending to the trilogy! I could have easily read another 5 novels with the Bill Hodges Squad (but it is what it is!!) ENJOY!!

Profile Avatar Barbara VanFossen Oct 2016

Good finale, I agree that the story did get predictable at times but overall I enjoyed this last book of the series and was sad that it ended. I will miss the characters too. Will Patton is an excellent narrator.

Profile Avatar David R. May 2025

I really liked the first two of the trilogy but the ending of third book drug on until the predicable ending. Together they are great and Will Patton is one of the best narrators out there.

Profile Avatar Blacksheep Dec 2024

Loved it. Loved the narrator. A great ending to the series.

Profile Avatar Pam Hanson Nov 2023

This book was a fitting closure to the series. The twist and turns the storybook could only have been perfected by someone of Stephen King‘s stature. I would recommend this series to anyone who likes Stephen King‘s writing. And now I am looking forward to the spinoffof Holly.

Great read

Profile Avatar Gary Baldwin Jul 2023

great book and a very good series. all three of these books are worth listening to and the narrator does a great job. five stars all the way

Profile Avatar Lisa Apr 2023

WOW!!! This book was extremely hard for me because of my dad and the year 2015. But, again I could not stop listening. I can't wait for the book Holly to come out.

Profile Avatar Brad M. Nov 2022

I first met these characters when reading the short story, If It Bleeds. I remember being so annoyed by annoyed by the voice and cadence Will Patton gave the character, but ultimately grew to like her. Then I found out there were other books that came before. Now I know (and love) the Bill Hodges character Holly kept referring to, and most importantly, I came to love the way Will developed Holly's character and came to love Holly. Listening to If It Bleeds again with a different eye. Oh....I didn't mention Steven Kings writing, but do I need to? I've rarely read anything of his I didn't like. Well done.

Satisfying ending

Profile Avatar Eric C. May 2021

Absolutely brilliant! A Stephen King classic!

Profile Avatar Matt G. Aug 2020

Fantastic!

Profile Avatar kaoltmanns9286 May 2020

Great way to conclude the trilogy and Will Patton is an amazing narrator, by far one of my favorites he just make the book come to life!

Profile Avatar Tracey J. Feb 2019

This was a good wrap up for the Mr. Mercedes series. Very well done. The narrator was ok in most of it, but I have to say I did not like the way he read the Holly character at all...Too robotic and not relatable at all. It was kind of like listening to an old lady robot. Hearing that character’s dialogue read that way was really annoying and distracting. I wish he would have just read it the way a normal person would speak like he did with the other characters. Other than that, it was good.

Profile Avatar Melissa S. Dec 2018

I am obsessed with Bill Hodges and Holly Gibney and am 100% convinced it’s because Will Patton is such a phenomenal narrator. I’ll be listening to al three again soon.

Profile Avatar William S. Dec 2018

It was a typical Stephen King novel - Awesome! Will Patton was great as usual.

Profile Avatar Mary N. Nov 2018

Another great book from Mr King.

Profile Avatar Marian k Mar 2018

I love will Patton’s voice the story was a little predictable though. I was getting a little bored with it at the end. still, I prefer Stephen king over any other writer LOL Will Patton’s voice made it much better

Profile Avatar James R Jan 2018

Great trilogy

Profile Avatar Jill W Oct 2017

Love love love this series!!! The characters are vivid and fun to love and hate!!

Profile Avatar JANELLE B Oct 2017

Mr. Mercedes was the best but End of Watch was a close second. Will Patton, as always, only enhances the story with subtle nuances for each character, allowing the listener to suspend disbelief all the more easily.

Profile Avatar Chris B Apr 2017

I'm so sad to finish this trilogy! Bill, Jerome, and Holly have become like friends and I will miss their chemistry. The books were examples of the best cop fiction: thrilling and yet cozy. The books do not deal with the supernatural as a main theme but rather as a slow boil that builds up to a crescendo. So many moments of suspense and mystery would never fail to satisfy upon resolution. My only complaint is that EOW feels more like a sequel to MM. the Second book, FC, is only mentioned in passing comments. I was expecting that Peter Saunbers would have joined the crimefighting, alas no. Will Patton has become my favorite narrator. Excellent as always and I'm glad he is the voice of so many King audiobooks.

Profile Avatar Robert S Mar 2017

I absolutely loved all three of these books. Hodges, Holly, Jerome all of the characters were great and Will Patton is beyond excellent! I feel Like I personally know Hodges, Holly and Jerome. I actually feel a loss now that I have finished this trilogy.

Profile Avatar teresa desiderati Nov 2016

Another good listen with the best narrator......

Profile Avatar Shane Maguire Oct 2016

A great book, but not as good as the others. The narrator does an excellent job over all, but I can't stand the voice he does for Holly. It drives me nuts.

Profile Avatar Katherine Koch Sep 2016

This was ok. Better than most thrillers by different authors as Stephen King is a thriller God, but I did enjoy Mr. Mercedes more. This book just didn't have the same feel for character development that I'm used to from Stephen King. However, I still enjoyed it. I love Wil Patton too, which helps. He's one of my favorite readers of all time.

Profile Avatar Terry Sandusky Sep 2016

Writing was definitely Steven King, a master. Really liked Mr. Mercedes, and this was OK too but not as good as Mr. Mercedes.

Profile Avatar sean cole Aug 2016

Will Patton made all the characters come to life a made me feel like I was right there trying to catch Brady fracking Hartsfield. Loved it.

Profile Avatar Ann Phillips Aug 2016

I think Will Patton narration is excellent . The story is a little predictable but still worthy of 5 stars.

Profile Avatar Cody Laursen Jul 2016

Great everything! Enjoyed this book! Loved listening to the narrartor and enjoyed the difference of voices. High quality audio book!

Profile Avatar Alejandra Ruiz Jul 2016

Beautifully sad ending. I fell in love with these characters more than I expected.

Great book, great narrator, great message. I'm sad to part with the characters.

Profile Avatar Hemant Bhonsle Jul 2016

Wow. Just wow. Loved this trilogy and this was a great final chapter.

Profile Avatar Shawn Mcgrath Jul 2016

Rather simplistic even for Stephen King but overall is a good book worth the listen.

Profile Avatar Andrew Bakst Jul 2016

Great application for long travels and the narrator of the book was superb.

Profile Avatar Craig Temczuk Jul 2016

I don't know what to say that hasn't been said time and time again about Stephen King's writing ability. I have read all his novels and many of his short stories, I have never been disappointed with the originality, and the ability to create something unique and interesting each and every time. If you haven't listened to Stephen King, listen to this trilogy, then the rest of King's books. If you have read any of his books, then I am preaching to the choir.

Profile Avatar Erika Budavari Jun 2016

Great book and Will Patten is a great audio reader! I have not read the first two books in this trilogy, but End of Watch still made sense and was suspenseful to the end!

Very good book. Just as good as the other two. I really enjoyed this trilogy. Kept me interested and I like the narrator. He did the characters real good. The book really came to life. I highly recommend this book. I loved it.
