Stephen King’s novel mainly focuses on a young girl who, for some reason, develops the pyrokinesis ability. Charlie’s parents do everything in their power to hide her abilities from the world. They knew as soon as her powers got out, the government would use Charlie for experiments. Of course, it isn’t easy for Charlie to control her abilities, and her emotions, which she can’t keep in check, serve as a trigger. When the news of Charlie’s abilities is out, a secret organization goes after her. Her father, Andrew, goes against these powerful and dangerous people to save his daughter from becoming a guinea pig.
