The Larger Parts
Background: ~Thank you Wikipedia~
The story is set almost entirely in the fictitious town of Castle Rock, Maine. The action centers on Cujo, a St. Bernard that belongs to Joe Camber and his family. While Camber is somewhat fond of Cujo, he never bothers to get the dog vaccinated against rabies.
The omniscient narrator recaps the story of Frank Dodd, the Castle Rock deputy sheriff whose murder spree was the central episode in the first half of The Dead Zone. There are some hints in the story that Cujo might be possessed by Dodd and that Dodd is haunting the Trenton house. Cujo's heightened intelligence might be one of the (if not the only) evidences of Dodd possessing Cujo (as rabid animals can't think properly). Except for these vague hints, and a closet which opens itself despite being latched and blocked with a chair, there are no supernatural elements in the book.
While chasing a rabbit in the fields around the Cambers' house, Cujo gets his head temporarily stuck in a rabbit hole and is bitten by a bat which is resident therein and infected with rabies. As Cujo begins to succumb to the disease, Joe's wife and son, Charity and Brett, leave on a trip to visit Charity's sister, Holly, in Connecticut. Soon afterwards, Cujo attacks and kills the Cambers' neighbor, Gary Pervier, a World War II hero who has become a misanthropic alcoholic. Joe goes to the Pervier home to check on Gary because they were going to Boston, only to find him dead. Before Joe is able to summon help, Cujo kills him as well.
The Trentons – Vic, Donna, and four-year-old Tad – are having problems of their own. Vic has discovered that his wife has been cheating on him with an itinerant furniture restorer and poet. In the midst of this household tension, Vic's fledgling advertising agency is failing, and he is forced to leave on a business trip to Boston and New York. Donna, home alone with Tad, takes their failing Ford Pinto to the Cambers' for repairs. However, the car breaks down when they reach the farm. With no one at the Camber home except for Cujo, a three day struggle begins to outlast the dog in a siege of the stalled car.
Hunger, thirst, and fantasies of escape methods conspire to tease Donna and Tad during the hottest summer in Castle Rock history. During one escape attempt, Donna is bitten in the stomach and leg. The Castle Rock sheriff, George Bannerman, arrives fortuitously but is immediately killed by the dog before calling for help.
Roleplaying Example:
The huge dog made his way down the road.
His paws hurt and he could taste the blood in his mouth still from a kill he had made four days ago.
He had wandered since then, going where his paws would lead him.
He found his way to a river, where he lapped at the water and then lay down, panting, it was far too hot to be wandering around in a lost manner.
As he lay down the pain came back and he rolled onto his side, whining again, squirming in the grass, his tail beat the ground slightly, a few birds took off from the tall grass.
He sprang to his feet, barking.
When he saw it was nothing he started to wade through the river and make it to the other side.
He ached so much.
