Constantly on the run, Gabriel Carr was already exhausted when his headlights fell upon the neon sign that would dictate the next leg of his grueling escape. Through the heavy rain, he read, The Last Motel for 99 Miles. Finally able to elude the two mobsters hunting him down, he paid for a room to rest both his body and his mind. Depressed and drained of all energy to live, he took refuge inside the room, locking himself away from the world. Gord, the motel's owner, knew right from the start that Gabriel would bring trouble to his peaceful motel. And when the stranger began spending time with Maizie, the secret love of Gord's life, he didn't like it one damned bit. Even so, he promised himself he would protect her and the others when that trouble did arrive.It was Maizie, the housekeeper, that drew Gabriel out of his room and introduced him to her little town in Northern Ontario. His time spent with the beautiful and optimistic Maizie changed his mind about ending his life. Instead, he switched his focus on the mission started by his slain girlfriend, Heather. Gabriel's new plans were going well - until the two hit men appeared, both prepared to eliminate Gabriel Carr, the only witness to the murder they committed. The end result being a dramatic gunfight and ending, no one could have predicted.
