Plot summary
On a desert highway in Nevada, Sheriff Collie Entragian stops Peter and Mary Jackson and finds marijuana in their car. He takes them to the jail in the town of Desperation, where Mary is locked in a cell with David Carver, his parents Ralph and Ellen, and the old veterinarian Tom Billingsley. The Carvers' daughter Pie lies dead in the station. David, a boy who believes God saved his friend Brian after a drunk driver struck him, kneels and prays. Sores break out on Entragian's skin, and he keeps saying the word Tak. The author Johnny Marinville is stopped on the same highway, and his assistant Steve Ames and a hitchhiker, Cynthia Smith, go looking for him.
