Miles Between Us by Todd Stoddart

Miles Between Us by Todd Stoddard is a haunting road story about loneliness, regret, family, and the strange ways the past can follow us. A long-haul trucker travelling lonely highways begins seeing the same hitchhiker every fifty miles, an impossible pattern that grows harder to ignore. When he finally stops to pick him up, the stranger becomes far more than just a passenger.

As the miles pass, the encounter pulls the driver closer to the memories and hauntings that have shaped his life for years. The story touches on a failed marriage, an absent father, and a daughter who only wanted to understand who he was and why he stayed away. Guided by the mysterious hitchhiker, the trucker is forced to face the truth behind the distance he has carried.

Atmospheric and emotional, Miles Between Us is a strong choice for readers who enjoy ghostly fiction, road stories, family drama, and reflective suspense.
