It has been two years since the slightly deranged Johnny, showed up on the doorstep of the White Star Truck Stop and Motor Lodge the finest little truck stop in all of post-holocaust America.
It's been two years since the White Star's proprietor finally let his daughter go north to Traverse City and the new University there with his hundred and fifty ton durachrome friend as her bodyguard.
Now, times are getting worse.
The gangs that have arisen as the regular government continues to fall apart are growing in strength and territory. It's getting harder for an honest trucker to find a load of freight to haul, or to get it where its going if he does find it. That means the old White Star has fewer customers, and that only adds fuel to a little difference of opinion that the innkeeper and his wife are having. Anne feels that it's time to cash in the chips, pack the bags, and head north. That is the last thing that Mitch wants to hear.
Gangs and family disputes are bad enough, but the owners and customers of the White Star are beginning to realize that they may have a little more trouble on the way. There are other tensions gathering around the old truck stop, and their source is something very far outside the experience of even the most widely-traveled trucker, or the most experienced innkeeper.
