Martin est un romancier, en pleine création sur son dictaphone, tout en conduisant sa voiture sur l'autoroute en approche de Paris. Subitement, au moment d'un embouteillage, la portière de sa voiture s'ouvre, et un mystérieux auto-stoppeur s'installe, sans avoir demandé ni la permission ni la direction de l'écrivain. Martin en est immédiatement agacé, et cet agacement n'est pas près de s'évanouir. En effet, l'embouteillage se prolonge, et les deux hommes sont presque « condamnés » à se supporter mutuellement. Martin tentera bien de se détacher de ce pot de glu aussi mystérieux qu'inquiétant, mais en vain. La nuit réserve encore quelques rencontres et autres surprises, et ce sombre archange d'auto-stoppeur, venu de nulle part pour aller on ne sait où, semble bien décidé à vouloir bousculer Martin et sa vie, en apparence bien rangée, mais pas si heureuse qu'il n'y parait.
