He'd got so he enjoyed it.Ben Jarvis, on the other hand, was new to the city, and this was his first ride.Literally thrown together on the train, the two soon found themselves drawn into a relationship that, to Russ, at least, got stranger and stranger, till Russ began to doubt his own sanity.Eventually things became clear to him, but not without payment of a terrible price.And then something similar happened on another train ride. And this time, he was better prepared."Bumps" deals with love, sacrifice, trust and distrust. Some mature content, including realistic language.
