Just After Sunset: Stories by Stephen King (English) Paperback Book

Description: Just After Sunset by Stephen King Thirteen "dazzling" (Associated Press) and "wonderfully wicked" (USA TODAY) stories from #1 New York Times bestselling author Stephen King. A book salesman with a grievance picks up a mute hitchhiker, not knowing the silent man in the passenger seat listens altogether too well. An exercise routine on a stationary bicycle takes its rider on a captivating--and then terrifying--journey. A blind girl works a miracle with a kiss and the touch of her hand. A psychiatric patients irrational thinking might create an apocalyptic threat in the Maine countryside...or keep the world from falling victim to it. These are just some of the tales to be found in the #1 bestselling collection Just After Sunset. Call it dusk or call it twilight, its a time when human intercourse takes on an unnatural cast, when the imagination begins to reach for shadows as they dissipate to darkness and living daylight can be scared right out of you. Its the perfect time for master storyteller Stephen King.
