Synopsis

A free ride may not take you where you expect to go.

Two young hippie women thumb it across the country in this fast-paced comic drama. Mo and Crystal, friends but not really, walk a fine line between taking control and losing it. Bad choices cancel out their good luck when offered something more than a free ride. A straight shot to California becomes a zig-zag game of hide and seek.

"I'm facing east, heading west, my thumb a'pointin' to the future. Hippy chicks hitchhiking to California? We're hard to resist. Of course, you stick out your thumb, you're sticking out your neck, too. Dump trucks and semi-tractor trailers roar by, inches away. Some toot their greetings, some honk their apologies for not carrying us along. We should probably get over the idea that a free ride is a rare gift. We're greedy that way and have yet to turn one down."

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Fay Ellen Graetz has always appreciated a good story and began recording them in letters to family and friends while living abroad. Soon those letters developed into her own short stories. With a knack for dialogue, her focus turned to play writing. When the plot didn't fit the stage she wrote "Thumb Luck," a short novel. She lives in Florida and is probably sitting at her laptop right now, working on another novel.

Ken received his first degree in chemistry. He returned to school to study art, eventually teaching art, art history and drawing at the University of Wisconsin. His favorite medium is oil on canvas. Those combined interests also produce scrumptious sauces and breads.
