The Toll

by Cherie Priest

A tense Southern Gothic horror tale set along a remote stretch of Florida highway where travelers begin to vanish without a trace. When a couple's road trip takes a sinister turn, they discover the toll road demands far more than spare change. Priest weaves folklore and visceral dread into a claustrophobic nightmare.
