Past midnight, time becomes a fragile concept, bending and snapping, blurring the lines between reality and unreality. In this collection of four chilling novellas, readers are taken on a journey where the unexpected lurks just beyond the veil of night. In "The Langoliers," a red-eye flight from L.A. to Boston leaves eleven passengers stranded in an eerily empty world, where something sinister awaits. "Secret Window, Secret Garden" introduces writer Mort Rainey, who, recently divorced and isolated at Tashmore Lake, faces a menacing figure named John Shooter, who brings accusations that threaten his sanity. "The Library Policeman" unfolds in Junction City, Iowa, where small businessman Sam Peebles grapples with his mental state while uncovering a deeper, lurking evil that could spell his doom. Finally, in "The Sun Dog," fifteen-year-old Kevin Delevan discovers that a Polaroid photograph holds supernatural secrets, drawing the attention of Old Pop Merrill, who sees an opportunity for profit despite the dangers posed by a creature that defies existence. With an introduction and notes from the author, these stories showcase the depths of Stephen King's imagination, ensuring readers remain awake long past bedtime, lost in the dark hours beyond midnight.
