King finds the jagged edges in a perfectly ordinary afternoon. It’s an exploration of how quickly the world we trust can turn predatory. Whether it's a grocery store trapped in a literal fog or a scientific breakthrough that creates an eternal, mental prison, the dread comes from the realization that our safety is an illusion.
