About this title
Synopsis
Del Ferris has run this load north four times a month for nine years and has never stopped for anybody. It is not caution exactly. It is a rule, and the whole point of a rule is that you do not relitigate it in the rain at eleven at night. She is standing past the Vinita on-ramp with no coat. She is fourteen, maybe. He puts the flashers on before he has decided anything. Somewhere around Big Cabin he notices the same headlights four cars back that were four cars back at Vinita.
Who this is about
Del Ferris runs a load north four times a month and has never once stopped for anybody, which is a rule and not a preference.
What goes wrong
He picks up a girl outside Vinita because it is raining and she is fourteen, and two hours later there is a car behind him that has been behind him since Vinita.
What's at stake
Putting her out at the next exit is safe, and he knows exactly what it would make him.
Why it keeps going
Each episode is one more exit he does not take, and one more thing he learns about who is following.
Takeaway
The decent thing and the safe thing part company early, and they do not come back together.
