A New York Times Bestseller!

For those who have lost a loved one to that liar and fraud named Death.

So reads the dedication of William Peter Blatty's Finding Peter, a deeply moving memoir that tests the bounds of grief, love, and the soul. Blatty, the bestselling author and Oscar Award–winning screenwriter of The Exorcist, lived a charmed life among the elite stars of Hollywood.

His son Peter, born over a decade after The Exorcist, grew from an apple-cheeked boy into an "imposing young man with a quick, warm smile." But when Peter died very suddenly from a rare disorder, Blatty's world turned upside down.

As he and his wife struggled through their unrelenting grief, a series of strange and supernatural events began occurring—and Blatty became convinced that Peter was sending messages from the afterlife.

A true and unabashedly personal story, Finding Peter will shake the most cynical of readers—and it will remind those in grief that our loved ones do truly live on.

Industry Reviews

"The master has returned. The author of the scariest novel ever written and the funniest of the Pink Panther films has finally penned his own personal tale. One part Hollywood memoir (with appearances by everyone from Streisand to Elvis to Judy Garland) and one part spiritual autobiography, this is a work filled with uproarious laughs and not a few tears. Then just when you think you've figured it out, Blatty delivers a life-affirming twist as mysterious and moving as anything he has written. If you've ever lost a loved one and longed for their presence, Blatty's consoling wild ride in search of the hereafter is a journey you must take." --Raymond Arroyo, New York Times bestselling author and host of EWTN's The World Over Live "The author of the scariest movie ever made is also an endearing writer and laugh-out-loud hilarious. This book is as entertaining as it is profound." --Dinesh D'Souza, author of Life After Death: The Evidence "Fascinating. You must read it." --Kirk Douglas, actor and author "I couldn't put it down. I read it in one sitting. Truly, a wonderful book. Much more than an eloquent and oftentimes very funny autobiography, Finding Peter is also a very moving expression of the loss of loved ones. A must-read for all who want to believe that Providence works miracles in our lives, often inexplicably. I loved it." --Stacy Keach, actor and narrator
