Really enjoying the story so far. The ABBA song text in the prologue was good preparation for the story AND They are one of a few of my FAVORITE groups. Having been a semi owner/driver among many other experiences, brings me closer to Mary Ann and YES, I knew another female driver and a dispatcher that would have give similar responses as did your character. Your graphic geographical entries as to northern lake and woods physicality, leads me to believe that you have actually been in Minnesota, as Deer River, Minnesota on Mn. hwy 210 nis very close to Duluth ( U of Mn -Duluth) (where my uncle lived) as well as to the casino up the road. As to black persons in that area, there are not many except in Duluth and so there is some problems at times, but "Minnesota Nice" is usually the "law of the land'. So far a VERY BELIEVABLE tale. In my opinion, from having read prior stories you wrote, you are an exceptional, entertaining writer. Thank you!
