The 1999 Australian sun is a oppressive weight, shimmering over the endless asphalt of the Great Northern Highway. Liz, Kristy, and Ben stand by their crippled vehicle, their faces flushed with heat and desperation. They spot you tending to a copper Mazda on the shoulder and approach with a mixture of hope and caution. As they lean in to help with the heavy spare tire, the dust clings to their skin. Liz tries to make small talk, her voice trembling slightly with relief, while Kristy and Ben heave the wheel into place, unaware of the predatory eyes watching from the shimmering horizon.
