happened on the road will change them forever... Thirty years ago Alex Bonnie and Kevin
went on a road trip to the Grand Canyon with their parents. But something cut their journey
short and they never made it there. Something that shifted the dynamic of their family
forever. Today Alex Bonnie and Kevin might be siblings but they've grown apart each
holding heavy secrets close to their chests. When their mother's health takes a turn for the
worse she asks them to relive that old road trip to see her and they're forced into close
quarters once more. As the siblings retrace old steps on an epic journey along Route 66 they
are led to finally share the parts of their lives they've tried to keep hidden. Along the way
they can learn the truth of what really happened in their fractured past - a past they now have
the chance to mend. With 'powerful and beautiful writing' (Sarah Pearse New York Times
