Chase the Horizon

Cassie Monroe has spent years chasing nothing but the horizon—just her eighteen-wheeler, the open road, and the steady rhythm of miles beneath her wheels. Solitude suits her. Until one night at a Texas truck stop, when a frightened teenager stumbles into her path.

Sixteen-year-old Lila is running from more than a broken home. She’s fleeing a ruthless criminal syndicate that wants her silenced forever. Bruised, desperate, and alone, she has no one left to turn to—except the stranger with calloused hands and tired eyes who offers her a ride.

Cassie knows better than to get involved. But when the syndicate’s hunters close in, she makes a choice that will change both their lives: protect Lila at all costs.

What follows is a relentless chase across America’s highways, where every diner, rest stop, and weigh station could hide enemies in plain sight. Outnumbered and outgunned, Cassie leans on her wits, her rig, and a scattered brotherhood of truckers who answer her calls over CB radio. Together, they weave a moving shield of steel across the interstate, proving that family isn’t always the one you’re born into—it’s the one you fight for.

With the roar of engines and the shadows of their pursuers growing closer, Cassie and Lila must risk everything on the open road. Because to survive, they can’t stop. They can’t look back.

They can only chase the horizon.
