After a savage beating that left him near death --- and brought him no closer to his estranged daughter --- the nameless drifter returns to the road, still a haunted man who’s yet to recover from the brutal murder of his wife.

But as he wanders from the red-rock spires of Arizona to Sun Studios in Memphis, he succumbs to sordid temptation --- and is soon accused of murder. To clear himself, he must find the real killer, unaware that his nemesis, a Wall Street power broker, is once again manipulating him afar and has unleashed a killer on his trail --- and the trail of his daughter.

Once again, the drifter learns there’s no place to hide on the long, dark road when so many people want him dead.
