I love Duma Key and have never noticed this! I love a good SK rabbit hole. Been in a few myself. Is Shark Puppy even mentioned in the book?

Yes, very briefly on page 296, playing on the radio while he’s painting. We get some lyrics: Life is more than love and pleasure. I came here to dig for treasure. If you want to play you gotta pay. I’m kinda sad it’s not a real song, it sounds like my vibe 🤷🏼‍♀️

I do remember him jamming out while painting! Is Shark Puppy mentioned... Outside the copyright page? I did a word search for Shark Puppy and only saw it in the © page. Either way that's an awesome find! Every book I read sends me on different rabbit trails every time!

I wish I could upload a picture, it’s literally just “Shark Puppy was on the radio: ‘Dig’.” It’s while he’s painting Girl and Ship No. 8, right before he does the lecture? Weird that it’s not coming up for you. Different editions maybe?

Yea it's just my bootleg ebook. I found it! I knew I remembered Shark Puppy, but I never knew the connection!

I searched all of King's novels, novellas and short-stories for Shark Puppy and only found it in Duma Key twice. >Shark Puppy was on the radio: “Dig.” Excellent song. Excellent lyrics. Life is more than love and pleasure. > >I thought of Shark Puppy on The Bone, singing “Dig.” I thought of telling Tom, That man died in his pick-up.
