Revival

A gripping and intense novel delves into addiction, faith, music, and the mysteries that may lie beyond life. Set in a quaint New England town during the early 1960s, the story begins with young Jamie Morton encountering Charles Jacobs, a charismatic new minister. Their relationship develops through shared curiosity in basic electrical experiments. As the years pass, Jamie, now a traveling musician battling addiction, crosses paths with Jacobs once more. Jacobs, now a captivating performer, crafts mesmerizing 'portraits in lightning.' This reunion profoundly impacts both their lives, binding them in a pact that transcends even the Devil’s imagination. Spanning fifty years, this haunting narrative reaches one of Stephen King’s most chilling conclusions, drawing from the American literary legacy of Nathaniel Hawthorne and Edgar Allan Poe.
