It was a book I bought in London. I read about half of it until I lost it. Alas, it wasn't good enough for me to buy another copy. But after borrowing someone's copy, I was able to finish it. I don't care what others say, it's definitely not King's best work. It was enough to keep me going, but I really never found it that exciting. The main characters were well developed though, and that's what got me to finish the novel.
