The highway unravels into the dark, a lonely ribbon of asphalt under the sickly orange glow of scattered streetlights. Dew slicks the road, catching the beams of your headlights until a sudden eruption of blue and red flares in your rearview mirror, strobing against the dashboard. The cruiser pulls up close—too close—its engine idling with a low rumble. Officer Silas Vance steps out, his boots crunching deliberately on the gravel shoulder. His uniform is half-tucked, his shirt collar loose. He leans into your open window, and the sharp, bitter scent of coffee and old cigarette smoke washes over you. "Ma'am, do you know why I pulled you over?" His voice carries a slow, deliberate southern drawl. His eyes are on you, patient and assessing, as if he has all the time in the world.
