by David Wickenhauser (Author)
A routine haul turns into a life-or-death struggle on the open road.
When seasoned trucker Hugh Mann picks up a mysterious hitchhiker in the Nevada desert, he unwittingly becomes entangled in a deadly game of cat and mouse with a ruthless gang of hijackers. As past and present collide, Hugh must navigate treacherous highways and confront his own demons to survive.
Crimson Highway offers:
- Authentic insights into the life of a long-haul trucker
- High-octane action and suspense
- A protagonist who embodies resilience and grit
But this isn't just about evading criminals-it's about what Hugh carries, and what that hitchhiker knows. As desert storms close in and violence escalates, Hugh realizes he's caught in something far bigger than just protecting high-value cargo. If he can't outwit his pursuers, the highway may become his final destination.
