Duma Key, Stephen King's latest horror novel, is an exploration of isolation and its effect on the psyche of an artist. In this case, a self-made millionaire suffers the loss of an arm in a tragic construction accident. The resulting aftermath, costs him his sanity, his wife and family and much of his wealth. Edgar Freemantle chooses to start over in a remote, tropical island in the Florida Keys where the only other inhabitants are a wealthy elderly woman and her caretaker. From the isolation of society in a frigid northern winter to isolation in a remote, lush tropical environ, the former building magnate draws on his interest in art for his rehabilitation and recuperation. Amazingly, he becomes a creative and dynamic painter whose art gives not only the power to predict the future but and also alter it. It appears the three inhabitants of the island have mutually suffered from severe traumas that draw them together. As Edgar investigates the mysteries of Duma Key, it becomes clear where the tragic roots of his artistic gifts come from and the dear price he pays for them.

In bestseller King's well-crafted tale of possession and redemption, Edgar Freemantle, a successful Minnesota contractor, barely survives after the Dodge Ram he's driving collides with a 12-story crane on a job site. While Freemantle suffers the loss of an arm and a fractured skull, among other serious injuries, he makes impressive gains in rehabilitation. Personality changes that include uncontrollable rages, however, hasten the end of his 20-year-plus marriage. On his psychiatrist's advice, Freemantle decides to start anew on a remote island in the Florida Keys. To his astonishment, he becomes consumed with making art-first pencil sketches, then paintings-that soon earns him a devoted following. Freemantle's artwork has the power both to destroy life and to cure ailments, but soon the Lovecraftian menace that haunts Duma Key begins to assert itself and torment those dear to him. The transition from the initial psychological suspense to the supernatural may disappoint some, but even those few who haven't read King (Lisey's Story) should appreciate his ability to create fully realized characters and conjure horrors that are purely manmade.
