Active ✔ PDFWhen a drug bust at a retro diner goes sideways, an undercover cop must save the waitress he’s falling for from a desperate hostage-taker -- while a haunted jukebox has been warning of the night’s dark turn since the first song played.
Mandy works the late shift at a quiet roadside diner, where the regulars come and go and the old jukebox always seems to land on the right song. She keeps her distance from Karl, the cook, who gives her a bad feeling.
A mix of late-night customers drift in and out -- truckers, locals, and a few passing through -- each wrapped up in their own small worlds.
What she doesn’t know is that the diner is being watched. James, one of her regulars, is an undercover cop tracking a small drug operation tied to the kitchen and a truck stop across the road. To Mandy, he’s more than just a customer, he’s someone she trusts.
When the sting goes wrong, Karl takes Mandy hostage at knifepoint. James moves in to protect those inside while Mandy struggles to stay calm.
At a critical moment, the jukebox bursts to life again -- its timing impossible to ignore.
