Then Dan meets the evanescent Abra Stone, and her spectacular gift, the brightest shining ever seen, reignites Dan's own demons and summons him to a battle for Abra's soul and survival. Finally, he settles in a New Hampshire town, an AA community that sustains him, and a job at a nursing home where his remnant "shining" power provides the crucial final comfort to the dying. Haunted by the inhabitants of the Overlook Hotel where he spent one horrific childhood year, Dan has been drifting for decades, desperate to shed his father's legacy of despair, alcoholism, and violence.

They look harmless: mostly old, lots of polyester, and married to their RVs. On highways across America, a tribe of people called The True Knot travel in search of sustenance.
