Review: Hour of So Length Read About a Father With a Missing Girl in a Serial Killer Frequented Truck Stop
Rating: 2 out of 5

This is a fairly formulatic run down isolated truck stop killer story where a father stops to get petrol, goes inside the shop, flirts with the waitress, asks her to watch his car while he uses the bathroom and returns to find his daughter who he thought was asleep in the backseat is not in the car anymore.  The father also has a special gift, which lets him see the dead (well some not always) and picks up the vibes of a few of the truck stop victims.  I didn't find this added anything other than predictability to where his daughter is.  So then all you've got left as you continue to read on is a workout who the killer of unsuspecting motorists, hitchhikers and others who make the mistake of stopping at the truck stop mystery angle. There's really not many who is the killer suspects for the father to work out so he doesn't become the next victim since for some reason the story concentrates on weird side stories of those inside the cabins of a few trucks in the parking lot, rather than having a few more staff or even a couple of locals who maybe dine there frequently or stop in for a drink every night or something who can't go home due to the snow storm road closure at the top of the mountain. The trucks having pretty much just society's losers didn't really add anything to the tale or make it realistic at all either.
