A Minneapolis salesman, John L. Rule, has completed his
sales calls in the rural farmland of Western Minnesota and
is looking for a large junkyard he has heard is in the area.
He has been looking for the final piece to complete the
restoration of an old truck in which he has spent many pleasurable
hours. It's growing late, John wants to locate the junkyard,
get the part he needs and get back home to his family. John
finds the junkyard and combs through the very large area
of derelict vehicles and junk. He finally locates the part,
but that is not all he finds as he stumbles into a gang
of ruthless killers. John has to struggle for his very life
and with a major storm moving into the area John finds his
time is running out.
The story takes John through a living hell on his terror
filled journey to a satisfying ending. John looks at his
hopes, his dreams, as he faces the ghosts of his past and
is determined not to give into the hopelessness of the situation
he finds himself.
You will experience John's fear as he races through everything
that is being thrown his way.
The story is fast paced and speeds you a long. I enjoyed
how Peter Rennebohm spins a tale that gets the reader caught
up in the terror of the chase. I did find the story a bit
predictable however as I followed the main character through
the many pitfalls and challenges as he struggles to escape.
If your looking for a gripping novel that keeps you turning
pages this is a good one. I look forward to reading Peter’s
next offering.
