Robin
and Chris are from very different backgrounds. He is the son of two physicians
and Robin is the daughter of a single parent mom who is a nurse.
Robin loves Chris with all her heart and he says he loves her, but he is
clearly excited about his future and leaving Iowa. Its summer and she can’t
imagine what she’ll do without Chris. She’s so desperate that she
agrees to help her aunt drive her two cousins on a zigzag trip across the
American west. The trip is a lot harder than Robin ever imagined
it would be. She finds herself becoming the buffer in this grieving, dysfunctional
family as she helps them come to terms with each other and themselves.
Robin surprises herself with her strength and ability. Read about her trip
across the American west and the discoveries that Robin makes. (Tookie
