Uncle Marcus

**They call him Uncle Marcus. A guardian angel to stranded travelers. A savior on the loneliest stretches of American highway.** **But some angels fall from grace.** When Marcus pulls over to help a desperate woman on a desolate road, he offers more than a ride-he offers salvation. A warm meal. A listening ear. A protector from the dangers lurking in the dark. But as mile markers blur and the engine hums its hypnotic rhythm, the woman begins to notice things. The way Marcus watches her in the rearview mirror. The locked glove compartment he won't explain. The faint stains on the cab floor that look like they've been scrubbed too many times. **Some roads have no exit.** In the suffocating intimacy of an eighteen-wheeler hurtling through the night, she realizes the most dangerous thing on this highway isn't what's outside the truck-it's what's inside with her. **Uncle Marcus has been driving these routes for years. He knows every rest stop. Every blind curve. Every place a person can disappear.** **And he's never late for a delivery.** --- *"A masterclass in psychological suspense that will make you think twice about accepting help from strangers. Ronald Hajek delivers a white-knuckle thriller that accelerates into pure terror."* **FROM THE TWISTED MIND OF RONALD HAJEK** **A JOURNEY INTO DARKNESS YOU WON'T SURVIVE**
