I've never told anyone this story, and never thought I would--not because I was afraid of being disbelieved, exactly, but because I was ashamed...and because it was mine.

Alan Parker se ve obligado a hacer autostop para llegar al hospital donde su madre convalece de un grave accidente. Sin embargo, noimagina que durante el trayecto se enfrentará a la experiencia más terrorífica de su vida. En efecto, los sucesivos conductores que lo recogen encarnan macabras fuerzas del más allá capaces de anticipar e incluso modificar el destino de Alan y de su madre. La clave del pavoroso enigma radica en un parque de atracciones, concretamente en una atracción llamada La Bala, similar a una montaña rusa y que, para horror de los lectores y el protagonista, detenta un inexplicable poder sobre la vida y la muerte... Un relato en el que la cotidianidad más absoluta se convierte en escenario del espanto más innombrable. Montado en La Bala constituye, además, todo un hito en la historia de la cultura, ya que fue el primer relato en estrenarse mundialmente por internet, ensanchando así la tradicional relación entre libro y lector.
