Publisher's Synopsis
Four strangers -- three men and a woman -- get thrown together on a road trip from Pennsylvania to California. As tensions mount, they become co-dependent: one owns the van, one has a driver's license, one is an experienced mechanic, and one has money to finance the trip. Each has his or her own purpose for reaching San Francisco. To complicate matters, and unknown to any of them, an object of criminal interest exists inside the van. In hot pursuit is a seasoned killer who will stop at nothing to retrieve what he believes is his. The four meanwhile endure a series of comical and tragic adventures across the country. Not all are destined to complete the journey, but each is bound to the others by danger, illness, sudden death, and a growing sense of friendship underscored by an emerging spirituality. They are vagabonds on a journey of self-discovery.
