A Face in the Crowd
The writing team that delivered the bestselling Faithful, about the 2004 Red Sox championship season, takes listeners to the ballpark again, and to a world beyond.

Dean Evers, an elderly widower, sits in front of the television with nothing better to do than waste his leftover evenings watching baseball. It's Rays/Mariners, and David Price is breezing through the line-up. Suddenly, in a seat a few rows up beyond the batter, Evers sees the face of someone from decades past, someone who shouldn't be at the ballgame, shouldn't be on the planet.

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal - Audio

King’s short ghost story features Dean Evers, a retiree who bids New England winters goodbye for a Florida condo. Evers has baseball in his blood, and while tuning in to the games, he begins to see long-dead people from his past sitting in the stands—and they’re saving him a seat. The story generates eerie suspense while moving briskly, and actor Craig Wasson handles the pacing and voices beautifully. After this story, you’ll never answer the phone while watching a ball game again. At roughly an hour, this can be digested in a single sitting, and the price is sweet. (LJ 9/15/12)
