For Casey Collins, that somewhere was the chillier side of the Iron Curtain one January night in 1986.
On a deserted highway in rural Poland, her VW slams into a wild boar. He's road kill, she's stuck in a ditch, and the temperature's headed down, down, down. To keep them both from freezing to death, the 27-year-old career diplomat cajoles Matt, her Marine guard passenger, into a double sleeping bag and climbs in after him. A night of whispered secrets and unexpected warmth propels Casey into an accidental relationship with fateful consequences.
A Macavity Award nominee acclaimed for her “sharp storytelling” (Publishers Weekly), Diana Deverell brings you the short story where it all began.
