About This Item
Author of the bestselling novel "Thinner" and four thrillers that have sold millions in an omnibus edition entitled "The Bachman Books," the late Richard Bachman has been described as "Stephen King without a consciece." Now he performs an eerie encore with the posthumous release of "The Regulators," a harrowing story of a suburban neighborhood in the grip of surreal terror. It's a summer afternoon in Wentworth, Ohio, and on Poplar Street everything's normal. The paper boy is making his rounds; the Carver kids are bickering at the corner convenience store; a Frisbee is flying on the Reeds' lawn; Gary Soderson is firing up the backyard barbecue. The only thing that doesn't quite fit is the red van idling just up the hill. Soon it will begin to roll, and the killing will begin. A quiet slice of American suburbia is about to turn to toast. The mayhem rages around a seemingly still point, a darkened house lit fitfully from within by a flickering television screen. Inside, where things haven't been normal for a long time, are Audrey Wyler and the autistic nephew she cares for, eight-year-old Seth Garin. They're fighting their own battle, and its intensity has turned 247 Poplar Street into a prisonhouse. By the time night falls on Poplar Street, the surviving residents will find themselves in another world, one where anything, no matter how terrible, is possible... and where the regulators are on their way. By what power they have come, how far they will go, and how they can be stopped- these are the desperate questions. The answers are absolutely terrifying.
Synopsis
There's a place in Wentworth, Ohio, where summer is in full swing. It's called Poplar Street. Up until now it's been a nice place to live. The idling red van around the corner is about to change all that. Let the battle against evil begin.
