King's seventh novel revisits the telekinesis of his first, Carrie, with a generational twist. The scene for Andy and Vicky's meet-cute was a scientific research project, resulting in them developing telekinetic abilities as well as falling in love. Now the scientists who ran the project want to weaponise their young daughter's pyrokinetic powers.
