"Recent Dartmouth dropout Mĕi, in search of a new direction in life, drives a limo to make ends meet. Her grandfather convinces her to take on private clients who pay under the table, and before she knows it she is working as a trusted chauffeur for sex workers. Mĕi does her best to mind her own business, but her knack for discretion soon leads her on a life-changing trip from San Francisco to Syracuse with a new client. Handsome and reserved, Henry piques Mĕi's interest. Toting an enormous black suitcase with him everywhere he goes, he's more concerned with taking frequent breaks than making good time on the road. When Mĕi discovers Henry's secret, she does away with her usual close-lipped demeaner and decides she has no choice but to confront him. What Henry reveals rocks her to her core and shifts this once casual, transactional road trip to one of moral stakes and dangerous consequences"-- Provided by publisher.
