On Little Tall Island, a stranger appears. He seems to know all and even tells quite a bit on some. He is adamant about what he wants. During the worst snowstorm of the century, this stranger demands Little Tall give him want he wants. The same thing he wanted from another town a century ago. But what is it he wants and what will it cost the towns people?

The Original Screen Play is very good. You go through the entire movie in this book. As you read, each scene sets itself up in your mind's eye. Although some have been offended by this book. I think some have missed the meaning or the moral that Stephen King was trying to get across. He was not trying to show that if you are evil or make selfish decisions you could get away with it. I believe Stephen King was trying to show how far mankind's moral and self-sacrificing behavior has fallen through time.

A book that will have you searching your soul as to where and what you truly stand for.
