Under the Dome
of Stephen King (Goodreads Author)
Description
On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chesterâs Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardenerâs hand is severed as âthe domeâ comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and whenâor ifâit will go away.Dale Barbara, Iraq vet and now a short-order cook, finds himself teamed with a few intrepid citizensâtown newspaper owner Julia Shumway, a physicianâs assistant at the hospital, a selectwoman, and three brave kids. Against them stands Big Jim Rennie, a politician who will stop at nothingâeven murderâto hold the reins of power, and his son, who is keeping a horrible secret in a dark pantry. But their main adversary is the Dome itself. Because time isnât just short. Itâs running out.source: stephenking.com
