Registered nurse Barbarella "Barb" Skye saved people during her day shifts and drove for Uber at night. One call took her from her warm Denver home to the outskirts and a man, Derrick Winslow, who needed a ride to the airport. Typically a long drive wouldn’t have bothered her, as it only fattened her bank account. However, a blizzard was headed toward them. Derrick urgently needed to get to LA and wanted a peaceful car ride. Annoyed and lustful of his Uber driver, Derrick loses patience with Barb the moment she steps into his life. But a slip down a mountainside changes things.

Glauben Sie nicht? Wer zwischen Schwefel und Schwermetallen groß geworden ist, der tickt einfach anders.
