Read To the Vanishing Point Storyline:
Picking up a hitchhiker changes the Las Vegas-bound vacation of sporting-goodsexecutive Frank Sonderberg and family into yet another of Foster’s (Into the
Out Of) quests to save the world. Their guest is a slight, lavender-eyed woman
called "Mouse" who claims to be 4000 years old and is on her way to the
Vanishing Point, where she must regulate the spinner that weaves the fabric of
existence. If she fails, evil and chaos will reign supreme. The Sonderbergs get
a glimpse of the possible result when their mobile home wanders into such
alternate worlds as a postholocaust Utah, a fire-and-brimstone burg called
"Hades Junction" and alien Pass Regulusa glitzy but incomprehensible version of
Las Vegas. The noble Sonderbergs are a dull bunch, but Foster keeps this jaunt
entertaining with his fantasy exaggerations of road stops at unknown towns,
intriguing turnoffs and dubious diners.
