We don’t cover many books ’round these parts (although it’s not because we’re unedumacated), but when the author is Stephen King, we make an exception. The man’s next anthology (seems to be publishing a lot of those lately) is titled FULL DARK, NO STARS, and will consist of four previously unpublished novellas from the master of terror. Here we have the plotlines for all four, as well as the cover. Enjoy!

1922: The story opens with the confession of Wilfred James to the murder of his wife, Arlette, following their move to Hemingford, Nebraska onto land willed to Arlette by her father.

Big Driver: Mystery writer, Tess, has been supplementing her writing income for years by doing speaking engagements with no problems. But following a last-minute invitation to a book club 60 miles away, she takes a shortcut home with dire consequences.

Fair Extension: Harry Streeter, who is suffering from cancer, decides to make a deal with the devil but, as always, there is a price to pay.

A Good Marriage: Darcy Anderson learns more about her husband of over twenty years than she would have liked to know when she stumbles literally upon a box under a worktable in their garage.

FULL DARK, NO STARS comes out in November.
