Fact-checker Frank Cole is moonlighting as the evening dispatcher for the Midnight Taxi Service. It is a quiet spring break in the Florida Panhandle until a nervous teenage boy flags down a Midnight cab near a parking lot full of flashing police lights. The next evening, suspicious strangers start appearing at the taxi stand, asking Frank about the boy and where he was headed. The ride speeds up shortly after. The driver who took the fare disappears, the teenager's strange past is revealed, and a dead body turns up holding a Midnight Taxi Service roadmap. Of course, what this all sums up to is simple: Once again Frank has to answer questions about a dead guy he never even met in life.
