Misery by Stephen King

Mouth-to-mouth, the woman had forced him
back to life, pumping great sickly-sweet gusts of
bad breath into him. Sickly-sweet, she smiled
down at him, pushing the painkillers into his
dry mouth with her big, work-coarsened fingers.
Coyly, smilingly, she pillow-plumped and
nursery-talked and made sure he finished up
every last little scrap.

He was a writer. She was his Number One Fan.
She'd pulled him out of the car-wreck, brought
him home, splinted and set his mangled legs.
All he had to do in return was to write, a very
special book, just for her, all about her favourite
character from his novels. One he'd killed off
and now had to bring back to life.

Because if he didn't, if he was Bad and Didn't 
Do What Nurse Told Him, she would be Cross
- very cross - and do things that would make
him scream and scream...
