“Their gods have failed them,” said Isabel, “These poor natives look to the sky for someone to save them from the arbitrary horrors of this world.” Isabel took the beef jerky from Max.

The Extraterrestrial Highway is officially known on maps as Nevada State Route 375. 375 is the back door to Area 51. And on that highway is the town of Rachel, population 54. A mile or two past Rachel is an abandoned gas station. One mile beyond that gas station is the Black Mailbox. Nobody knows who put it there. Some say it first appeared around 1949 some time after the Roswell incident. Legend has it that at time it bore the name of a Steve Medlin. Who was he? No one knows. The Black Mailbox an artifact of sorts, it's been hijacked by vandals, painted white then black again, blown to pieces with shotguns. But it always reappears. And when it is there it's the destination of offerings from those who make the pilgrimage to touch the Black Box in the desert.UFO hunters have reported a Black GMC Denali that appears on moonless nights. A lone driver gets out and collects the contents. Those who attempt to intervene find themselves waking in their cars with no memory of that night. No cell phone videos, no photos, no text messages. The only evidence of being there, a red pin dropped on a Google map that lead them to this place. This is the story of the people who drive the Black Denali.
