Les journalistes le savent : si ça saigne, l’info se vend. Et l’explosion d’une bombe au collège Albert Macready est du pain béni dans le monde des news en continu. Holly Gibney de l’agence de détectives Finders Keepers, travaille sur sa dernière enquête lorsqu’elle apprend l’effroyable nouvelle en allumant la télévision. Elle ne sait pas pourquoi, le journaliste qui couvre les événements attire son attention... Quatre nouvelles magistrales, dont cette suite inédite au thriller L’Outsider, qui illustrent, une fois de plus, l’étendue du talent de Stephen King. " Dans ce nouveau livre, Stephen King réussit à nouveau la prouesse de faire passer du frisson au rire, de l’attendrissement à la colère. " France Info " Un recueil palpitant." Télérama

Out of the 4 stories, I loved one of them (Rat), really liked another (If It Bleeds), and found the other two to be just alright. They all held my interest well though.
Word of warning, your milage may vary with this collection if you have not read The Outsider or Mr. Mercedes. If It Bleeds, the longest of the 4 stories, is a sort of continuation of those books.
Overall, yeah it was fun :)
“They exaggerate the weather reports, you know that. They turn six inches of fresh powder into the “Storm of the Century”.
Four stars mostly for the title novella. Love the Holly Gibney character and the Outsider storyline. King's reliability continues to surprise me. I've been reading his books for forty years and he always delivers. Not always at the same level, but he always delivers.
