Wild Roads: A road story about the long way through

Eli leaves Durango with two friends and a plan that fits in a glove box. Keep the day small. Two taps means stop. Eat on schedule. Water on the clock.After a hard year, the rules are the only thing keeping him upright. The road offers distance - quiet towns, rim country, miles of nothing that might add up to something. But grief doesn't stay in the duffel bag where he packed it, and the friends riding with him are carrying their own weight.Riley is learning what she'll give to her work and what she won't. Mason is learning that not calling can be its own kind of decision. Eli is learning how to tell the truth without turning it into a performance.Wild Roads is a plainspoken, deeply felt road story about sobriety, loss, and the kind of friends who stand guard without making speeches. For readers of Peter Heller, Willy Vlautin, and Nickolas Butler.
