Story4.5 out of 5 stars 57,057
An 11-year-old boy's violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City's most popular citizens. He is Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad.

In the emotional aftermath of her baby's death, Em starts running. Soon she runs from her husband, to the airport, down to the Florida Gulf, and out to Vermillion Key, where her father has offered the use of a shack he has kept there for years.

Pickering also enjoys the privacy of Vermillion Key, but the young women he brings there suffer the consequences. Will Em be next?

Alden McCausland and his mother are what they call “accident rich”; thanks to an unexpected life-insurance policy payout and a winning Big Maine Millions scratcher, Alden and his Ma are able to spend their summers down by Lake Abenaki, idly drinking their days away in a three-room cabin with an old dock and a lick of a beach. Across the lake, they can see what “real rich” looks like: the Massimo family’s Twelve Pines Camp, the big white mansion with guest house and tennis court that Alden’s Ma says is paid for by “ill-gotten gains” courtesy of Massimo Construction.

If they are awakened, if the gauze wrapping their bodies is disturbed or violated, the women become feral and spectacularly violent; and while they sleep they go to another place.... The men of our world are abandoned, left to their increasingly primal devices. One woman, however, the mysterious Evie, is immune to the blessing or curse of the sleeping disease.

Anger and grief in the wake of the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School are palpable in this urgent piece of writing, but no less remarkable are King's keen thoughtfulness and composure as he explores the contours of the gun-control issue and constructs his argument for what can and should be done.

Classic King
I like this, this is classic short Story King all the way. Quick and dirty, that is the way a short story should read and this one hits the mark. Well Done Master!

A King Fan
Love this book! Wished it was a longer story. The painting gives me chills. Excellent in King fashion.

Loved It
Would you listen to The Road Virus Heads North again? Why?
Yes, I have already listened like three times and would listen agian.
Who was your favorite character and why?
My favorite character was the main character, because I could identify with him.
What about Jay O. Sanders’s performance did you like?
Joy O. Sander's voice is very pleasing to listen to. I usually listen at night and don't want any high pitched annoying readings. He also has very good voice dynamics.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Film tag line...One man's treasure is another's misfortune.
Any additional comments?
This is a nice quick read/listen book to enjoy. The story is intriguing and the reading is exciting. I definately recommend this book.

Tried Old Plot
Would you listen to The Road Virus Heads North again? Why?
I would listen again because it was a good listen until the end.
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
The beginning was intriguing - at the yard sale. The end was just a letdown. The 'creature' coming for him - the end.
What does Jay O. Sanders bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I liked the reader's style and his voice. He is easy to listen to and I wanted to hear more.
If you could rename The Road Virus Heads North, what would you call it?
Yard Sale - Caveat Emptor.
Any additional comments?
This could have been a really great story. It started off so well with the suicide of the artist and the fact that he was on drugs. It just floundered at the end. It could have almost been the story of the Monkey's Paw in a skewed way.

Nice Stephen King appetizer.
I enjoyed this short story by Stephen King. The performance was good and the story kept moving pretty good. I think this would have made a great Twilight Zone episode.

second hand creeps
I love tag sales, garage sales, estate sales, no matter what you call them, they can be fun but, sometimes the glimpse into someone else's life is a little creepy. This story, as usual, carries the creep further than anyone wants to go! Great read/listen! Thank you again SK.

It was OK
This was listenable, typical Stephen King. More like his early stuff, which I prefer. Would be nice to see him go back to this genre, perhaps even to this story which could be expanded on.
