UNDER THE DOME

Under the Dome

On a seemingly normal, fall day in Chester's Mills, Maine, the town is mysteriously and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when--or if--it will go away.
