“Come
on, people!” Fran Smith muttered as she inched her car forward.
“This isn’t Texas. We know how to handle a little snowfall.”
But
this wasn’t just a snowfall. This was a blizzard.
The
kind that swallowed roads, blurred headlights, and turned every

the heat blasting in the car. Visibility was nearly zero, and the
wind howled through the trees like some unseen force warning her to
turn back. But there was no turning back—not with Venture’s

She
rounded the bend—then hit the brakes.
Her
tires slid. The back end fishtailed, bouncing into the snowbank with
a muffled thud.
Something
lay in the road.
