A new, thrilling short story by Lynn Sholes and Joe Moore, the award-winning co-authors of the popular Cotten Stone Mystery series.
Charlie Burdick is on the run. Accused of his business partner's murder in Las Vegas, Charlie's been bumming rides all the way to southern Alabama—intent on tracking down the real killer. Then a chance meeting in a country store with a beautiful and mysterious blonde leads to unexpected danger and a fast getaway in a red Corvette. It all dead-ends on a dark highway, with a night to remember . . . and a nightmare to forget.
"Brisk, fast, a mile-a-minute pace—excellent! A treat from two co-authors who understand the true concept of 'thriller!'"—Heather Graham, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author
