Winter has come to Route 117, a remote road through the high desert of Utah trafficked only by eccentrics, fugitives, and those looking to escape the world. Local truck driver Ben Jones, still in mourning over a heartbreaking loss, is just trying to get through another season of treacherous roads and sudden snowfall without an accident. But then he finds a mute Hispanic child who has been abandoned at a seedy truck stop along his route, far from civilization and bearing a note that simply reads “Please Ben. Watch my son. His name is Juan” And then at the bottom, a few more hastily scribbled words. “Bad Trouble. Tell no one.”. Despite deep misgivings, and without any hint of who this child is or the grave danger he’s facing, Ben takes the child with him in his truck and sets out into an environment that is as dangerous as it is beautiful and silent. From that moment forward, nothing will ever be the same. Not for Ben. Not for the child. And not for anyone along the seemingly empty stretch of road known as Route 117.

Die Wüste im Winter. Fallwinde, Schneestürme, die Sicht unter zehn Meter. Ben Jones, den wir aus "Desert Moon" kennen, beliefert mit seinem Truck die Road 117. Er selbst sagt über sich, dass er Menschen Zeit verschafft, während sie auf die Entscheidung warten, ob es bei ihnen auf Leben oder Tod hinausläuft. Was soll er also tun, als er um Hilfe gebeten wird? An einem Stop'n'Gone Truck Stop wartet ein kleiner Junge mit einem Zettel auf ihn: Bitte, Ben. Riesenärger. Mein Sohn. Nimm ihn heute. Er heißt Juan. Ich traue nur dir. Sag keinem was. Mit Kind und Hund im Fahrerhaus erleidet Ben einen Unfall, als ein Truck ihn rammt. Er muss nach Rockmuse fahren, um den Schaden beheben zu lassen. Da erwartet ihn die nächste Katastrophe. John, der Prediger, ist angefahren worden, und liegt halbtot in einem Kino. Seine einzige Überlebens- chance ein ehemaliger Arzt, der selber mehr tot als lebendig in einem Trailer außerhalb der Stadt lebt. Auch in seinem neuen Kriminalroman erzählt James Anderson von Verbrechen mitten in der Wüste, die scheinbar am Rand geschehen und in die Ben verstrickt wird, obwohl er nur seine Ware ausliefern und in Ruhe gelassen werden will. Doch Ben kann nicht anders. Er stellt sich der Gefahr.

Carl Streator is a reporter investigating Sudden Infant Death Syndrome for a soft-news feature. After responding to several calls with paramedics, he notices that all the dead children were read the same poem from the same library book the night before they died. It's a 'culling song' - an ancient African spell for euthanizing sick or old people. Researching it, he meets a woman who killed her own child with it accidentally. He himself accidentally killed his own wife and child with the same poem twenty years earlier. Together, the man and the woman must find and destroy all copies of this book, and try not to kill every rude sonofabitch that gets in their way. Lullaby is a comedy/drama/tragedy. In that order. It may also be Chuck Palahniuk's best book yet.

A singularly compelling debut novel, about a desert where people go to escape their past, and a truck driver who finds himself at risk when he falls in love with a mysterious woman. Ben Jones lives a quiet, hardscrabble life, working as a trucker on Route 117, a little-travelled road in a remote region of the Utah desert which serves as a haven for fugitives and others looking to hide from the world. For many of the desert’s inhabitants, Ben's visits are their only contact with the outside world, and the only landmark worth noting is a once-famous roadside diner that hasn’t opened in years. Ben’s routine is turned upside down when he stumbles across a beautiful woman named Claire playing a cello in an abandoned housing development. He can tell that she’s fleeing something in her past—a dark secret that pushed her to the end of the earth—but despite his better judgment he is inexorably drawn to her. As Ben and Claire fall in love, specters from her past begin to resurface, with serious and life-threatening consequences not only for them both, but for others who have made this desert their sanctuary. Dangerous men come looking for her, and as they turn Route 117 upside down in their search, the long-buried secrets of those who’ve laid claim to this desert come to light, bringing Ben and the other locals into deadly conflict with Claire’s pursuers. Ultimately, the answers they all seek are connected to the desert’s greatest mystery—what really happened all those years ago at the never-open desert diner? In this unforgettable story of love and loss, Ben learns the enduring truth that some violent crimes renew themselves across generations. At turns funny, heartbreaking and thrilling, The Never-Open Desert Diner powerfully evokes an unforgettable setting and introduces readers to a cast of characters who will linger long after the last page.

In September 1971, 181 numbered marbles roll around in a barrel while Australia holds its breath. The last number drawn will shatter two women's lives, and bring them together again... Sixteen–year–old Caroline 'Miki' Patrick confides to her best friend– the outspoken, smart–mouthed Jude– that she's pregnant. Miki's parents place her in the iron embrace of St Anthony's, a home for wayward girls, with the scheming Sister Angela pressuring her to give up her baby. But Jude convinces Miki they can raise the child, and together they make a pact and take to the road. But the teenagers are ill–prepared for the hardships they face, and after one particularly difficult night, fate separates them. Alone, poor and scared for her baby's welfare, Miki ultimately surrenders Dominic to the home. Two decades later, Miki is a dangerous woman, and she's on the run. A vocal anti–war activist who assists draft dodgers, Miki is hiding from the Federal Police and never stays in one place very long. That is, until Dominic's birthday is drawn in the conscription lottery and Jude steps back into her life. Now Miki and Jude will stop at nothing to be reunited with him...
