Description

At Mile 81 on the Maine turnpike lies a deserted rest stop, a magnet for teenage mischief and the site of a terrifying encounter. When a mysterious, mud-caked station wagon appears, its driverless presence signals a sinister turn of events for anyone who stops to investigate. As more unsuspecting travelers fall prey to the vehicle's insatiable hunger, a young boy named Pete finds himself the unlikely last hope against a monstrous force. This chilling novella blends the coming-of-age dread of childhood with a primal, automotive terror, exploring themes of courage and survival against overwhelming odds.
