In the late 1990s, a young high school teacher named John Wheelwright wins a cash prize from his local newspaper for winning first place in a school assignment contest. The prize was enough money for Wheelwright to take a month off and explore America. On Route 66, he stops at a hotel where he meets Annie Cavanaugh and her daughter Lindy. The next day on the road, Annie's car breaks down and they are forced to walk out of town. They find another car stranded by a mudslide. He offers them a ride but ends up getting them into more trouble than they could imagine.

The Highway is the story of a man, a woman, and what they do when they find a bag of money on the side of the road. The novel follows their decisions and consequences as they try to deal with what's happened and decide whether to turn it in or keep it.

One of the best books I have ever listened to, 'The Highway' is a story about a man on his way onto a highway when an accident changes it all. It's not just about the collision, but what happens before and after as well.

In 2008, a rash of highway shootings swept the country and left a string of clues pointing to one man: Highway Patrolman Joe Mack. For all involved, it was Joe's "perfect crime." A competent police officer and husband, Joe had honed his skills patrolling America's highways. The case went cold, but then an old woman came forward with a piece of evidence that could crack the case wide open.

A trucker, Holter Graham, is driving across the country towards his destination of Edmonton when he notices a sign for a ferry. In an abandoned rest stop, he meets the mysterious man with a double-barrel shotgun, who tells him that his life has been spared because he is carrying $800,000 in cash. Soon after he meets the man, Holter learns how important this money is to everyone in the world and why they want it so badly.

The Highway is the first book in C.J. Box's mystery series, and he is a master of suspense. The book tells the story of two FBI agents as they travel through a snowstorm in Montana to investigate a murder and discover that they are not who they think they are. There are many twists and turns, but the driving factor through it all is the unknown- will Box be able to keep his secrets?
