Spoiler:
the girl was the consciousness in a computer but the boy was able to make it home safe and communicate with her.
I can't be a lot of help, but it doesn't really sound like Straub or King to me (the only co-written books by them, that I know of, are The Talisman and Black House, and it's not either of those). I ran this past my wife, who has read more Straub than me, and it's not familiar to her either. How sure are you that it was Peter Straub?
