Всичко хубаво рано или късно свършва, верни читателю - дори Стивън Кинг не може да съчини роман, който продължава вечно.

Роландовият ка-тет остава единен, макар членовете му да са разпръснати в различни посоки и измерения на времето. Сузана-Мия се пренася от "Дикси Пиг" в стая на ужасите в Тъндърклап. Джейк и отец Калахан, придружавани от животинчето Ко, влизат в ресторанта ... |
