<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The bestselling author of all time presents the screenplay version of his chilling tale, written expressly for the television screen. The ABC miniseries, starring Tim Daly and Debrah Farentino, is scheduled to air the week of February 14, 1999. 8 pages of photos.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>#1 <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author Stephen King presents an original screenplay and major television event set in Maine's remote Little Tall Island.</b> <p/>They're calling it the Storm of the Century, and it's coming hard. The residents of Little Tall Island have seen their share of nasty Maine Nor'easters, but this one is different. Not only is it packing hurricane-force winds and up to five feet of snow, it's bringing something worse. Something even the islanders have never seen before. Something <i>no one</i> wants to see. <p/>Just as the first flakes begin to fall, Martha Clarendon, one of Little Tall Island's oldest residents, suffers an unspeakably violent death. While her blood dries, Andre Linoge, the man responsible sits calmly in Martha's easy chair holding his cane topped with a silver wolf's head...waiting. <p/>Linoge knows the townsfolk will come to arrest him. He will let them. For he has come to the island for one reason. And when he meets Constable Mike Anderson, his beautiful wife and child, and the rest of Little Tall's tight-knit community, this stranger will make one simple proposition to them all: <p/>"If you give me what I want, I'll go away."<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Stephen King is the author of more than sixty books, all of them worldwide bestsellers.
