Don't miss this new retro edition of Stephen King's classic novel with a nostalgia-inducing cover, which sees a mother and son trapped in a car by a rabid dog. For the first time from Hodder paperbacks, comes this outstanding tale of terror as real as a failing marriage, a broken-down car, or a fatal virus.

King's classic tale of survival sees a young mother and her son trapped in a car by a horrifyingly familiar monster.

Once upon a time, not so long ago, a monster came to the small town of Castle Rock, Maine . . .

Cujo is a huge Saint Bernard dog, the best friend Brett Camber has ever had. Then one day Cujo chases a rabbit into a bolt-hole. Except it isn't a rabbit warren any more. It is a cave inhabited by rabid bats.

And Cujo falls sick. Very sick. And the gentle giant who once protected the family becomes a vortex of horror inexorably drawing in all the people around him . . .
