Not all vampires are tall, dark, and handsome.

Some are short, fat, and ugly.

Amanda Peck is stuck in a dead-end job, lives with a deadbeat boyfriend, and is dead set on changing her life. With no thought about what tomorrow might bring, she packs up and runs. She hitchhikes west by accepting rides from truckers, but what she know is that prowling the enedless miles of asphalt on eighteen wheels is a vampire who's already claimed the lives of five women, leaving their mutilated bodies in his tracks like so much roadkill.

Will the next truck take her on the ride of her life, or will it take her on a nightmare journey that can only lead to the end of the road?
