Highway Homicide
“The winds had dropped too but there were still huge drifts everywhere, some of them many, many feet high. By noon, snow plows had been sent out from Newport and Burlington to clear the highways.
Jack Tyler had made his way out to Lisa’s diner, bringing her into work. In exchange for a huge country breakfast, Jack had used his pickup with its snow blade, to clear her parking lot for her. Another couple of inches fell during the afternoon but it wasn’t enough to cause a problem. Once Jack had... cleared the bulk of it, the diner’s highway traffic would pack the rest of it down pretty well.
Now the storm was over and the highways had been plowed and were open, people started to pull into the diner constantly. Over the years it had gained the reputation of being the best place for miles around for a highway break. About noon, Carl pulled in to the parking lot as well.
