Book Description
Winter has come to Route 117, a remote road through the high desert of Utah trafficked only by eccentrics, fugitives, and those looking to escape the world. Local truck driver Ben Jones, still in mourning over a heartbreaking loss, is just trying to get through another season of treacherous roads and sudden snowfall without an accident. But then he finds a mute Hispanic child who has been abandoned at a seedy truck stop along his route, far from civilization and bearing a note that simply reads “Please Ben. Watch my son. His name is Juan” And then at the bottom, a few more hastily scribbled words. “Bad Trouble. Tell no one.”. Despite deep misgivings, and without any hint of who this child is or the grave danger he’s facing, Ben takes the child with him in his truck and sets out into an environment that is as dangerous as it is beautiful and silent. From that moment forward, nothing will ever be the same. Not for Ben. Not for the child. And not for anyone along the seemingly empty stretch of road known as Route 117.

Book Description
Die Wüste im Winter. Fallwinde, Schneestürme, die Sicht unter zehn Meter. Ben Jones, den wir aus "Desert Moon" kennen, beliefert mit seinem Truck die Road 117. Er selbst sagt über sich, dass er Menschen Zeit verschafft, während sie auf die Entscheidung warten, ob es bei ihnen auf Leben oder Tod hinausläuft. Was soll er also tun, als er um Hilfe gebeten wird? An einem Stop'n'Gone Truck Stop wartet ein kleiner Junge mit einem Zettel auf ihn: Bitte, Ben. Riesenärger. Mein Sohn. Nimm ihn heute. Er heißt Juan. Ich traue nur dir. Sag keinem was. Mit Kind und Hund im Fahrerhaus erleidet Ben einen Unfall, als ein Truck ihn rammt. Er muss nach Rockmuse fahren, um den Schaden beheben zu lassen. Da erwartet ihn die nächste Katastrophe. John, der Prediger, ist angefahren worden, und liegt halbtot in einem Kino. Seine einzige Überlebens- chance ein ehemaliger Arzt, der selber mehr tot als lebendig in einem Trailer außerhalb der Stadt lebt. Auch in seinem neuen Kriminalroman erzählt James Anderson von Verbrechen mitten in der Wüste, die scheinbar am Rand geschehen und in die Ben verstrickt wird, obwohl er nur seine Ware ausliefern und in Ruhe gelassen werden will. Doch Ben kann nicht anders. Er stellt sich der Gefahr.
