____________________________ Kathleen and Yannick have not spoken for nineteen years not since
what happened with their daughter. Now there's unexpected news from the other side of the
country and the call for a road trip they can only make together. As they rattle for hundreds
of miles in a pick-up through forests over mountains and into service stations a
heartbreaking history reveals itself: of fierce love complicated ex-wives and headstrong
children and of a unique bond that never really went away. As they drive argue gossip and
reminisce an unexpected future begins to emerge. Gripping emotional witty: MOON ROAD
captures the wonder and grief of watching our children grow up of recovering from long buried
pain and rediscovering those closest to us when we think we know all there is to know. _______
