EDITOR'S NOTE

Before his death from cancer in late 1985, Richard Bachman published five novels. In 1994,

while preparing to move to a new house, the author's widow found a cardboard carton filled

with manuscripts in the cellar. These novels and stories were in varying degrees of

completion. The least finished were longhand scribbles in the steno notebooks Bachman used

for original composition. The most finished was a typescript of the novel which follows. It

was in a manuscript box secured with rubber bands, as if Bachman had been on the verge of

sending it to his publisher when his final remission ended.

The former Mrs Bachman brought it to me for evaluation, and I found it at least up to the

standard of his earlier work. I have made a few small changes, mostly updating certain

references (substituting Ethan Hawke for Rob Lowe in the first chapter, for instance), but

have otherwise left it pretty much as I found it. This work is now offered (with the approval

of the author's widow) as the capstone to a peculiar but not uninteresting career.

My thanks to Claudia Eschelman (the former Claudia Bachman), Bachman scholar Douglas

Winter, Elaine Koster at New American Library, and to Carolyn Stromberg, who edited the

earliest Bachman novels and validated this one.

The former Mrs Bachman says that, to the best of her knowledge, Bachman never travelled to

Ohio, 'although he might have flown over it once or twice'. She also has no idea when this

novel was written, although she suspects it must have been late at night. Richard Bachman

suffered from chronic insomnia.
