"A grieving widower travels to Florida for respite and instead receives an unexpected inheritance — with major strings attached," reads the description, but anyone familiar with Cujowill immediately recognise the story's protagonist: Vic Trenton, now an old man in the 2020-set story, who was married to Donna Trenton in the 1981 novel. Donna is Cujo's protagonist, a mother who becomes trapped in her car along with her young son, Tad, while the rabid dog waits outside.
The excerpt and story description don't give too much away, other than the fact that Donna is now clearly dead. Cujo himself is dead at the end of the 1981 novel, so it remains to be seen what threat her husband will face in this new tale.
