It's from his latest short story collection--The Bazaar of Bad Dreams.

The story is a perfect misdirection.

It gets the reader thinking the story is going to end one way, but it ends another.

It's also only 16 pages and mentions Florida's Governor in a disparaging way.

Is it available to be purchased as a one off story (like on kindle) or do you have to buy the book?

I listened to the book recently but I don't remember specifically which story this was?

I searched my name on your board to mess with cgcs the other day. Saw where he said I was talking shite about you. All I said is that you were too nice for your own good to allow me access to the TAMU board, just fyi.

Last week I read Finders Keepers. There were several references to back story for certain characters but I didn't think much of it. I didn't realize until I finished it that it was a sequel. Literally the only reference on the paperback was on the inside of the back cover.

I immediately ordered "Mr Mercedes" (the first one)

Sounds dry.

Yes. It most certainly is a book.

It has pages and a cover and everything.
