South of the Border The Motel That Eats Time

very road trip has that one unforgettable stop. For the Mills family, it was supposed to be just gas and a night's rest at a tourist motel called South of the Border. Instead, their car disappears, the exits loop back, and the bright neon signs welcome them into a town that feeds on time itself.

Inside the restaurants, attractions, and endless shops, smiles are too wide, food is always free, and other travelers whisper warnings no one wants to hear: Nobody leaves. Not really.

With every meal, every "free" souvenir, and every night in the Motor Inn, the family feels themselves slipping deeper into the trap. Something laughs with them, eats with them, and waits for the moment when escape is no longer possible.

Part supernatural horror, part dark Americana, part Twilight Zone nightmare - this novel twists nostalgia into terror, turning billboards, fireworks shops, and neon sombreros into symbols of dread.

If you've ever driven I-95, seen Pedro's signs, or wondered what would happen if a roadside attraction never let you go, this book will sink its cold teeth into you.

Fans of Stephen King's The Shining, Robert Bloch's Psycho, or eerie roadside horror like Vacancy will feel right at home - and never look at motels the same way again.
