Wolves of the Calla by Stephen King
4.0

Great ride. Many winding paths that find their way together in loud and bloody manners. The 'Salem's Lot stuff was fun, too.
Only beef is a forced bit of suspense. A secret is withheld from the readers, but not of whose point of view you're reading along with. Like, the Gunslingers talk around it and King wrote around it, pretty much saying there's a secret here I'm going to keep from you, readers, na na na boo boo stick your face in do do. I've seen that stuff before, but I doubt ever touched on now and then for 300+ pages and never in a King book. It's something Jeffrey Archer does and it's fucking irritating.
