Them turns out to be a band of men who want that package no matter what it takes, and they believe Casey knows whereand whatit is. Alone and injured, Casey escapes from the hospital under the noses of her pursuers and hides out in the Kansas cornfields.The valuable stash turns out to be photos, truck manifests, and other information pointing Casey toward something big and complicateda conspiracy? Smuggling? Blackmail? She cant be sure. Uncertain how to proceed, Casey is led by Death to a group of teenagers looking for something other than dust and crops to fill their daysand their nights.Using their limited resources, she finds her way into a maze of greed and desperation and into the clutches of people who dont care who gets hurt as long as they get what they want. Casey, determined that no one else should die because of the desires of one group of criminals, finds herself defending not only herself, but also the teenagers, a few other kind locals, and perhaps even the trucking industry itself.
