Fire-Starter
by Stephen King
In 1969 Andy McGee and Vicky Tomlinson participate in a drug experiment
run by a veiled government agency known as The Shop. One year later
they marry. Two years after that their little girl, Charlie, sets her
teddy bear on fire...by looking at it.
Now that Charlie is eight, she doesn't start fires anymore. Her parents
have taught her to control her pyrokinesis, the ability to set anything
- toys, clothes, even people - aflame.
But The Shop knows about and wants this pigtailed "ultimate weapon."
Shop agents set out to hunt down Charlie and her father in a ruthless
and terrifying chase that ranges from the streets of New York to the
backwoods of Vermont. And once they get her they plan to use Charlie's
capacity for love to force her into developing a power as horrifyingly
destructive as it is seductive. What they don't take into account is
that even a child can know the pleasure of the whip hand and the
satisfaction of revenge.
Hardbound in excellent condition.
