HR>Hmmm, it's difficult to explain since many things are being clarified in

HR>But they can trick the cop and escape . . .
Ah yes - the Collie Entragian Survival Society.

HR>It's all very religious as the 'key' is a young boy who prayes all the

That boy was a surprise to me.  I've grown used to King misrepresenting
