Just finished reading 'The Insider' by Piers Morgan - He was a former tabloid newspaper Editor (News Of the World and The Mirror) and it's a fascinating book - It's in diary form over the last decade and has mentions of Princess Di, Kate Winslett (amongst other celebs) and his encounters with Rupert Murdoch.

Have you read DESPERATION by Stephen King first?
Although you can read THE REGULATORS as a stand-alone novel, the two intertwine quite a lot.

Hmm, no. But I do happen to have it on the shelf. You suggest I read desperation first?

If you've NEVER read Desperation, read it first. If it's a long while since you read Desperation, read it first.
