    About this ebook

    Daniel Connors knows he's a monster.

    He’s been on the run since that terrible night three years ago, when he killed three adult men... including his own father. Every time he blacks out, someone dies.

    When a dog begins following him on the road, Daniel begins to feel almost normal, not counting the dreams about his cousin Kayla asking him to return home.

    “You can save us all,” she tells him.

    Daniel knows he can’t save anyone.

    As he travels through the Midwest, the hitchhiker in Daniel’s head leaves a trail of blood in his wake. When escape doesn’t seem possible, he will have to decide if his destiny lies home, in Wolf Point.
