About this title

Synopsis

Volt is a dark, suspensful and savagely beautiful collection of tales exploring murder and its repercussions. One man kills another after neither will move their pickup truck from the road and a female sheriff in a flooded town attempts to cover up the murder. When a farmer harvesting a field accidentally runs over his son, his grief sets him walking, mile after mile. A band of teens bent on destruction run amok in a deserted town at night. Heathcock's tales of lives set afire light up the sky like signal flares touched off in a moment of desperation.
