The Tomb kicks off the Repairman Jack series that Stephen King calls "one of the best all-out adventure stories I've read in years."
Much to the chagrin of his girlfriend, Gia, Repairman Jack doesn't deal with appliances. He fixes situations-situations that too often land him in deadly danger. His latest fix is finding a stolen necklace which, unknown to him, is more than a simple piece of jewelry.
