The #1 New York Times bestseller from master storyteller Stephen King—four chilling novellas that will “grab you and not let go” (The Washington Post).
ONE PAST MIDNIGHT: The Langoliers takes a red-eye flight from Los Angeles to Boston into a most unfriendly sky. Only eleven passengers survive, but landing in an eerily empty world makes them wish they hadn’t.
TWO PAST MIDNIGHT: Secret Window, Secret Garden enters the suddenly strange life of writer Mort Rainey, recently divorced, depressed, and alone on the shore of Tashmore Lake—until the mysterious John Shooter arrives, pointing an accusing finger.
THREE PAST MIDNIGHT: The Library Policeman has his terrifying sights set on businessman Sam Peebles, who thinks he may be losing his mind. But another enemy lurks as well—the truth—and if Sam can find it in time, he might stand a chance.
FOUR PAST MIDNIGHT: The Sun Dog comes in the form of a looming supernatural menace, appearing in every picture that young Kevin Delevan takes with his new camera. Pop Merrill, Castle Rock’s sharpest trader, aims to exploit it for profit—but this creature is a very dangerous investment.

Awesome
"I really liked Langoliers the best! The Library Policeman one was pretty messed up! #plumreview"
— Byron (5/5)
King
"This is more of a collection of novels rather than novellas. Some of them are very long. I really liked The Langoliers, by the best. Secret Window was almost as good but King didn't quite stick the landing. Ranking: 1) The Langoliers 2) Secret Window, Secret Garden 3) Sun Dog 4) Library Policeman"
