Summary
A standalone darkly humorous thriller set in modern America's age of anxiety, by New York Times bestselling author Jason Pargin.

Outside Los Angeles, a driver pulls up to find a young woman sitting on a large black box. She offers him $200,000 cash to transport her and that box across the country, to Washington, DC.

But there are rules:

He cannot look inside the box.
He cannot ask questions.
He cannot tell anyone.
They must leave immediately.
He must leave all trackable devices behind.

As these eccentric misfits hit the road, rumors spread on social media that the box is part of a carefully orchestrated terror attack intended to plunge the USA into civil war.

The truth promises to be even stranger, and may change how you see the world.

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

Best book I've enjoyed in a long time! Road trip adventure and shenanigans meet conspiracy theories and modern day psychoses. Lots of humor, adventure, philosophical outlooks on state of our world, etc. Narration was EXCELLENT! Hope they turn this into a movie!

Simply put: this novel is amazing. I've been following the author on his article and podcasting side for years and finally gave a book a shot. I'm both blown away yet not at all surprised by the quality. I fell in love with all the characters in the book from the main protagonist to even the side people who popped up in something as small as being commenters on a message board. This is a hopeful book and it's stuck with me since the final words by the immensely talented narrator who pulled off all of the aforementioned characters. I've been singing it's praises and recommending to everyone I know. And I recommend you buy it too. You'll be delighted, charmed, saddened, and hopeful in ways that I can't begin to put into words. But I promise you, the author did.
