Under the dome

On a beautiful fall day, the small town of Chester's Mill; Maine, is sud- denly and inexplicably sealed off from the rest of the world by an invis- ible force field.

No one knows what the barrier is, where it came from, and when—or if—it will go away.

Dale "Barbie" Barbara, an Iraq vet turned short-order cook, was eager to leave town forever; now he's trapped along with everyone else. And when his commander calls on him from outside the dome, Barbie becomes their only lifeline. --back cover
