Summary
"In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis's parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at the Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there's no wndow. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents -- telekinesis and telepathy--who got to this place the same way Luke did... In this most sinister of institutions, the director, Mrs. Sigsby, and her staff are ruthlessly dedicated to extracting from these children the force of their extranormal gifts. --As psychically terrifying as 'Firestarter', and with the spectacular kid power of 'It', 'The Institue' is Stephen King's gut-wrenchingly dramatic story of good versus evil in a world where the good guys don't always win."-- Inside cover
