Wow!What a truly fantastic short horror story from master storyteller Simon Janus (Simon Wood).This is the story of bank robber James Straley. After a bank job goes horribly wrong, Straley, the sole survivor runs into trouble when his getaway car breaks down.Struggling on foot, he stumbles a car crash and steals one of the vehicles, an old Chevy Caprice. As he pulls the driver from the car, he's shocked by the blistered and bleeding wounds covering his body and is even more surprised when the driver grabs him by the wrist and asks for help.Soon after leaving the man in a ditch and driving off, Straley is devastated to discover that he too has the rash that covered the previous driver of the vehicle.Now he's in a desperate race against time, to discover who the man was, what disease or condition he suffered from and the cure for the rash.Another clever and truly chilling tale from an incredible author.
