In this sharp-witted and poignant novel, two former friends with a complicated history are thrown together on an unexpected road trip, where old lies unravel and new truths emerge with every mile marker. Ophelia Dahl has just buried her beloved father when she finds among his personal effects a blindsiding document. The mother Ophelia thought died thirty years ago isn't dead after all--she abandoned her. But how could she, and where is she now? With some neighborly help, Ophelia's going to find out. Beau Augustin is an acclaimed author and Ophelia's childhood bestie turned teenage nemesis, still chafing after all these years. As luck would have it, Beau's current project--family deceptions--is set to take him across the West Coast. Ophelia has a brilliant idea: Beau's book. Her life. Win-win. In a Subaru filled with baggage, they hit the road. Despite detours, dead ends, and old grudges, Ophelia is desperate to unravel a lifetime of lies. And Beau's research is a little more personal than he's letting on. Mile by mile, they're getting closer to their truths--and to each other--than they ever thought possible.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
