But it's also just a great, exciting, and riveting thriller - and it's got substance, too! - As much as I enjoyed Mr. Mercedes - and I did, quite a bit - I still wasn't entirely sure about the fact that King wanted to write a trilogy about detective Bill Hodges. Part of the appeal to Mr. Mercedes was the treat of seeing King take on something new for him; between the fear of being a retread and the way Mercedes's cliffhanger suggested the sequel would go, I just wasn't all that excited about the idea of two more books. But Finders Keepers allays those fears and then some, finding King moving to a very different kind of crime novel while still using all of his various strengths to tell a great story with some compelling undercurrents. Finders Keepers kicks off with a 1970's-set home invasion at the home of a reclusive author who once one heralded as the voice of a generation, and although the robbers steal plenty of money, it's evident that the unpublished manuscripts - and the way they might change the author's reputation and the fate of his most famous creation - are going to be the key to this whole story. How Hodges fits into it doesn't come until much later, by which point King has a half-dozen plates spinning, somehow keeping them all afloat without dropping a one. And when, to mix a metaphor, he starts pulling all of these plot threads together, Finders Keepers takes off like a rocket without ever slowing down again. From a plot perspective, Finders Keepers is pretty straightforward; while Mr. Mercedes was a psychological duel between two men, Finders Keepers is a more streamlined crime novel about a heist, the loot, and everyone who wants it for themselves. The fact, though, that the loot may be less financial and more intellectual is one of the things that makes Finders Keepers so engaging, especially for any book lover who might find themselves identifying more than they'd like to admit with the book's villain. It's a really richly satisfying and truly exciting read, one that sinks its hooks in quickly and then drags you along without ever really giving you a chance to catch your breath - and that's part of what makes it such a good read. Apart from that, there's King's usual knack for character work (particularly with regard to the Saubers family in general, and Pete specifically, without whom the book wouldn't work at all), his engaging prose, and that thematic richness as he explores the idea of who books and characters really belong to. Yes, the book's final pages give me pause as I start to get an idea where the third book in the trilogy will go (and the reported title seems to confirm those suspicions)...and yet, I can't deny that Bill Hodges seems to have lit a fire with King, delivering a pair of great reads. So why worry too much about the third just yet - especially when there's as great of a read as Finders Keepers to enjoy first? Review: A flawed but interesting sequel. - Finders a Keepers is the second book in a planned trilogy that began with Mr. Mercedes. And it reads as though it is a second filler as for me, this novel can best be described as a "filler." Mr. Mercedes, which won the Edgar Award for best crime fiction, won deservedly so. It is an excellent crime thriller displaying the best of Mr. King's talent. What I would have liked To have seen I n Finders Keepers is Mr. King furthering the character developments of his characters that were in Mr. Mercedes. Unfortunately, the characters of Hodges, Holly and Jerome do not appear in well over 200 pages of the book and we learn very little about them from the last 4 years that Mr. Mercedes took place. Instead, Mr. King takes one of the characters from Mr. Mercedes who was injured in the car crash incident and makes his son one of the main characters of the book. The villain this time is a book reader obsessed with an author and what he has done with his main character..... In a similar vain as Misery. As a book collector and avid reader, I did find the story of book collecting and the treatise of authors such as Hemingway, Roth, and Bellow interesting. Mr. King has a keen insight on the reclusive nature of these authors and how they write about their characters. It just was not enough for me to quickly want to turn the pages. The obsession of the villain in obtaining the stolen manuscripts he steals of the authors unpublished novels after he kills him is, in my opinion, a bit overdrawn and too long. As is the father's son( the father introduced in Mr. Mercedes) who becomes the catalyst in the lost manuscripts from the deceased author. I will not explain more as to not spoil the contents of this novel. The last 100 pages are engrossing. Pages turn quickly as the players found in Mr. Mercedes come into play in solving the case. Here, we learn a bit more about them but not enough. I wish Mr. King would have continued in the excellent crime novel format as Mr. Mercedes. With that being said, I would not dream of not reading anything Mr. King writes.... He is a brilliant author. I just hope the third novel in the trilogy goes into more detail on the three main characters in Mr. Mercedes and that he returns to a more conventional crime drama novel. This novel is a worthy read, but I would recommend reading Mr. Mercedes first. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00P42WROG | | Accessibility | Learn more | | Best Sellers Rank | #17,695 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #49 in Heist Thrillers #51 in U.S. Horror Fiction #96 in Horror Suspense | | Book 2 of 3 | The Bill Hodges Trilogy | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (41,395) | | Edition | Reissue | | Enhanced typesetting | Enabled | | File size | 3.5 MB | | ISBN-10 | 9781501100130 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1501100130 | | Language | English | | Page Flip | Enabled | | Print length | 558 pages | | Publication date | June 2, 2015 | | Publisher | Scribner | | Screen Reader | Supported | | Word Wise | Enabled | | X-Ray | Enabled | ## Images ![Finders Keepers: A Novel (The Bill Hodges Trilogy Book 2) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81DjRlnHArL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than its predecessor?

Feels like John Rothstein is King in another universe that this premise is based on and honestly I wouldn't want to live in that universe or have someone else go through life without their favorite author. These characters go through that scenario & it unfolds exactly like you would expect but King layed it out in a brilliant way! Morris Bellamy is your modern day Gollum in this second entry Masterpiece! He even goes out similar to Gollum (sorry spoilers). Oh, Brady definitely has the shine after getting clobbered in the head in the first book and I cannot wait to dive into the third book in this series. I didn't know what to expect with this book and I think that is the best way to approach it, once you start you cannot stop reading! Get ready, get comfortable and let King do his thing because this is a great book that's entertaining from start to finish! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/103762586-finders-keepers-a-novel-the-bill-hodges-trilogy-book-2](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/103762586-finders-keepers-a-novel-the-bill-hodges-trilogy-book-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
