What happens to Cujo, how he becomes a horrifying vortex inescapably drawing in all the people around him, makes for one of the most heart-stopping novels Stephen King has ever written. As Tad tries to fend off the terror that comes to him at night from his bedroom closet, and as Vic and Donna face their own nightmare of a marriage on the rocks, there is no way they can know that a monster, infinitely sinister, waits in the daylight. They are seeking peace and quiet, but life in this small town is not what it seems. Meanwhile, Vic and Donna Trenton, and their young son Tad, move to Maine.
One day, Cujo chases a rabbit into a cave inhabited by sick bats and emerges as something new altogether. Cujo is a two-hundred-pound Saint Bernard, the best friend Brett Camber has ever had. Outside a peaceful town in central Maine, a monster is waiting.
Get ready to meet the most hideous menace ever to terrorize the town of Castle Rock, Maine. The #1 New York Times bestseller, Cujo “hits the jugular” ( The New York Times) with the story of a friendly Saint Bernard that is bitten by a bat.
