About this listen

 From the New York Times bestselling author of The Only Good Indians comes a gripping high-speed chase novel pitting a runaway teen and her unsuspecting friends against a relentless serial killer on a dangerous road trip where survival is anything but guaranteed.

Sixteen-year-old Harper has decided to run away from home after she has another blow-out argument with her mother. However, her two best friends, little sister, and ex-boyfriend all stop her from hitchhiking her way up Route 80 in Wyoming by joining her on an intervention disguised as a road trip. What they don’t realize is that Harper has been marked by a very unique serial killer who’s been trolling the highway for the past three years, and now the killer is after all of them in this fast-paced and deadly chase novel that will have your heart racing well above the speed limit as the interstate becomes a graveyard.

Critic reviews

"Narrator Richard Brake delivers the gruesome urban legend that fuels Stephen Graham Jones’s latest before handing the narration over to Isabella Star LaBlanc. She takes listeners to I-80 in Wyoming, where a runaway teen named Harper finds herself, her little sister, her ex-boyfriend, and her two best friends desperately trying to elude Bucketmouth, a killer who eats his prey’s body parts and then assumes their physical likeness. A trucker’s daughter, Harper is a classic Jones badass Indian girl, and LaBlanc, who is a citizen of Sisseton Wahpeton Dakota Nation and who has won Earphones Awards for the Blackfeet author’s earlier work, ably embodies her while deftly navigating the lingo of the long haul. Wall to wall and tree top tall, good buddy."

Every book Stephen Graham Jones writes hits a bit different from the ones before it. This one's a pure violent horror in the vein of The Hitcher. So, if that ls your thing, and it is mine, I highly recommend picking it up.
