| Publisher Description: Stephen King's ultimate evil vehicle of terror, Christine: the frightening story of a nerdy teenager who falls in love with his vintage Plymouth Fury. It's love at first sight, but this car is no lady. Evil is alive in Libertyville. It inhabits a custom-painted red and white 1958 Plymouth Fury named Christine and young Arnold Cunningham, who buys it. Along with Arnold's girlfriend, Leigh Cabot, Dennis Guilder attempts to find out the real truth behind Christine and finds more than he bargained for: from murder to suicide, there's a peculiar feeling that surrounds Christine--she gets revenge on anyone standing in her path. Can Dennis save Arnold from the wrath of Christine? This #1 national bestseller is "Vintage Stephen King...breathtaking...awesome. Carries such momentum the reader must force himself to slow down" (The New York Times Book Review). |
