《比爾霍吉斯三部曲之一：賓士先生！》

史蒂芬．金 Stephen King 又一改編影視小說！
2015年「愛倫坡獎」最佳小說！ 2014 Goodreads年度最佳懸疑驚悚小說！紐約時報暢銷榜！

這個世界的一切都是騙人的，

我什麼都不相信，除了黑暗。

在進入黑暗前，我要剖開世界的外皮，留下疤痕……

　　一個灰暗酷寒的清晨，數百名失業者正排隊等待就業博覽會開門。一輛賓士車突然從濃霧中浮現，高速衝撞人群，輾過，倒退，再加速。這場悲劇造成八人死亡、十五人受傷，戴著小丑面具的兇手則逃逸無蹤。

　　數個月後，曾承辦本案的警探霍吉斯退休了。他無法擺脫自己未破的案件，鎮日自溺在孤獨、發福、心臟病與失去目標的退休生活裡，不看垃圾電視節目的時間，就對著手槍的槍口發呆。

　　直到他收到一封自稱是兇手的「造勢者」的來信，邀請他上「黛比的藍雨傘」聊天室聊天。來自兇手的挑釁讓霍吉斯從抑鬱中醒了過來，下定決心阻止邪惡的兇手下一步的行動。

　　但霍吉斯不知道的是，兇手布雷迪其實就潛伏在他每日行經的路線上。不起眼的制服、公式化的微笑背後，隱藏著對世界的深深恨意。只有在殺人和策畫殺人時，他才能暫時忘記慘痛的童年回憶、忘記猶如毒液鑽入心口的禁忌情慾。沒有人在乎他這個打工族，但在親手打造的密室裡，布雷迪享受著操縱生死的成就感。

　　而隨著霍吉斯和他的夥伴逐漸接近謎底，布雷迪給這個世界最駭人的「謝幕演出」，也悄悄開始倒數計時……

WINNER OF THE 2015 EDGAR AWARD FOR BEST NOVEL #1 New York Times bestseller!

In a high-suspense race against time, three of the most unlikely heroes Stephen King has ever created try to stop a lone killer from blowing up thousands. "Mr. Mercedes is a rich, resonant, exceptionally readable accomplishment by a man who can write in whatever genre he chooses" (The Washington Post).In the frigid pre-dawn hours, in a distressed Midwestern city, desperate unemployed folks are lined up for a spot at a job fair. Without warning, a lone driver plows through the crowd in a stolen Mercedes, running over the innocent, backing up, and charging again. Eight people are killed; fifteen are wounded. The killer escapes. In another part of town, months later, a retired cop named Bill Hodges is still haunted by the unsolved crime. When he gets a crazed letter from someone who self-identifies as the "perk" and threatens an even more diabolical attack, Hodges wakes up from his depressed and vacant retirement, hell-bent on preventing another tragedy. Brady Hartsfield lives with his alcoholic mother in the house where he was born. He loved the feel of death under the wheels of the Mercedes, and he wants that rush again. Only Bill Hodges, with two new, unusual allies, can apprehend the killer before he strikes again. And they have no time to lose, because Brady's next mission, if it succeeds, will kill or maim thousands. Mr. Mercedes is a war between good and evil, from the master of suspense whose insight into the mind of this obsessed, insane killer is chilling and unforgettable.
