About this book
"In the frigid west Texas desert, seven weary travelers converge on a lonely motel at the foot of a massive mountain. Ethan and Hunter have left behind a corpse, an arson, and a horrific act of violence. Kyla and Fernanda are making a desperate escape to the border. Stanley and his granddaughter are on their way back from Mexico with a mysterious man pursuing them on a motorcycle. All of them are on the run from something. All of them have something to hide. And somehow, they're all connected to the motel's eighth guest, an enigmatic woman named Sarah Powers. Within hours, Sarah is dead. The strange twins who run the motel inform the surviving guests that her murder demands justice. The guests are given an ultimatum: bring proof of who killed Sarah Powers by midnight or die when the protective lights around the motel go out. Because something very old and very dangerous lurks in this corner of the desert. And it's hungry. But nothing at the Brake Inn Motel is quite as it seems. As time
