Charles Highworth runs his life on rules: measured coffee, color-coded routines, and a relentless focus on finishing his psychology degree. Control is survival. But when a message arrives—Uncle Brad is dead, and the funeral is tomorrow—Charles is forced back onto the road he swore he’d never drive again, toward the country town that built him… and broke him. The trip should be simple. One night. One service. One goodbye. Instead, the highway turns into a nightmare. Charles fights his way back with nothing but instinct, grit, and the parts of himself he’s spent years trying to medicate into silence. One night. One road. One truth he can’t outrun. He’s coming home for a funeral. But first, he has to survive the night—and the truth waiting at the end of the road.
