Synopsis

When gonzo columnist Eve Petra is fired by her magazine's new owner, she spends a couple of days wallowing in self-pity and JD. No one wants to hire a mid-life, female Hunter Thompson. The market has changed. People have changed. The only thing that hasn't changed is Eve. Lying on her bed wondering what has happened to her life, it comes to her. Who has weathered every whim of the public for nearly five decades? Who has shown the ability to rise from every disaster? Who is looking down at her from a poster taped to her ceiling? Rock God Steven Tyler. Armed with a Glock and a bottle of Jack, accompanied by her adventurous Grandma Rose, Eve starts on a road trip to find her hero, and to ask him the meaning of life. Along the way, she escapes murderous circus performers, becomes a Girl Scout cookie and meets a Wild Man in a sharkskin suit. Now she just needs to find Steven Tyler and get him to tell her what the hell she should do next . . . and keep Grandma Rose from seducing him.
