Here's the quoted synopsis of the novel, and then a question...
"Ever since 1979, the state police of Troop D in rural western Pennsylvania have kept a vintage Buick Roadmaster--or what looks almost just like one--caged in Shed B out back of the barracks. That's when Troopers Ennis Rafferty and Curtis Wilcox answered a call about its driver gone missing from a gas station just down the road. Wilcox knew old cars, and he knew this one was suspect. When Rafferty vanished a few hours later, Wilcox and his fellow troopers knew it was worse than dangerous--and that it would be better if John Q. Public never found out about it. Mostly the car sleeps (that's one way of putting it, anyway), but even as it sleeps it breathes--inhaling a little bit of this world, exhaling a little bit of whatever world it came from."
Troop D? TROOP D? Isn't this the troop from the long awaited, seemingly never-to-be-published story that King wrote for Ellison's unpublished third Dangerous Visions?
Oooo, do you think the story will be a part of this larger novel?
