ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Later by Stephen King tells the story of Jamie Conklin, a boy with the supernatural ability to see and communicate with the dead. This ability, initially a childhood secret, becomes a tool that others seek to exploit. Jamie's life takes a dark turn when a police detective, Liz Dutton, involves him in a dangerous case to locate a dead bomber, Kenneth Therriault. As Jamie navigates the ethical implications of his gift, he confronts malevolent spirits and the corrupting influence of power. The narrative explores themes of loss of innocence, deception, and the blurring lines between the living and the dead, as Jamie learns to grapple with the burden of his abilities and the darkness they expose.
