Description

Doctor Sleep. Years after surviving the horrors of the Overlook Hotel, Danny Torrance is still haunted by the scars of his childhood. Struggling with alcoholism and painful memories, he drifts through life until he finally finds stability in a small town, where he works in a hospice and uses his psychic gift—his “shining”—to comfort the dying. His patients come to know him as “Doctor Sleep.”

Danny’s quiet life changes when he forms a telepathic connection with Abra Stone, a remarkable young girl whose shining is far more powerful than his own. But Abra’s extraordinary abilities have attracted the attention of the True Knot, a nomadic group of seemingly ordinary people who sustain themselves by feeding on the psychic essence of gifted children.

As the True Knot closes in on Abra, Danny is forced to confront his past and embrace the powers he once feared. Together, they enter a desperate battle against a ruthless enemy whose hunger knows no limits.
