This book is about an 21 year old boy name Devin Jones, who is clueless in life but gets hired in the summer at an Amusement park called Joyland, located in Heaven's Bay, North Carolina. While working, he is recuperating from a breakup and gets to know new acquaintances/co-workers, and city locals. In Heaven's Bay, he learns about a girl name Linda Gray who was murdered inside the Haunted House and no one has been able to solve whose Linda's killer.
Once Devin learns about this mystery it is up to him and a boy to solve the murder. Sadly I have to admit that Stephen King did not do a good job at hiding who the killer was because by the time I was almost at 100 pages, I already figured out who the killer is but the nonetheless it had a great plot and great characters. I look forward for his other works and hopefully see this book on the big screens someday!
