!!!SERIAL KILLER WARNING!!!

"What's that feeling like, knowing you're going to die?"

The man offering you a ride is just a man.
But, that’s what he wants you to think...

He looks like any other quiet farmhand in this forgotten part of the country...
Tired eyes, work clothes, a polite, hesitant drawl. He seems concerned. He seems safe.

That is the first and most important lie.

His name is Kevin Halle.

He is the latest heir to a legacy written in blood and buried in the soil of his family’s land. For him, violence isn’t a crime of passion; it’s a cure for a deep, hereditary boredom. People aren’t people to him—they are temporary diversions, games to be played until he grows tired and the hollow feeling returns.

Accepting his help is the first move in a game you didn’t agree to play. The rules are his, the playing field is his family’s cursed woodland, and the stakes are your life. He will be eerily calm, chillingly polite, and utterly without mercy. He doesn’t hate you. In a way, that’s more terrifying. You are simply the most interesting thing to happen to him today.

This is a story about being seen by a predator who has perfected the art of invisibility. It’s about the horror of the mundane mask hiding a monster, and the desperate fight for survival in a place where the very landscape is his accomplice.

The truck door is open. The night is quiet. His offer hangs in the air.
