Just After Sunset, a collection of short stories by Stephen King, features a range of topics from what awaits humans after death in the story “Willa” to the broken thinking of those consumed by mental illness in “N.” In some stories, such as “The Gingerbread Girl” and “A Very Tight Place,” the characters experience salvation as a result of a devastating loss.
