It will be the adventure of a lifetime for Carrie Brinkley... if she makes it to the end alive.

• WINNER: Literary Titan Book Awards - Gold Medal
• RECIPIENT: Readers' Favorite Book Reviews - 5 Stars (x5 Reviews)

When Carrie loses her job and boyfriend during the opening weeks of the pandemic, she's determined to reset her life in a positive direction. The answer? A solo, two-month, cross-country bicycle trip from Virginia Beach to Mendocino, California.

Yet dangers lurk that she'd never anticipated. During Carrie's idyllic journey across the continent, her greatest danger comes not from her encounters with angry animals, road hazards, or the elements. Something much worse stalks her-something much too human.

EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a novel that's part literary suspense, part women's fiction, part crime thriller, part travel fiction, and one hundred percent fun. A young woman's journey of adventure becomes one of profound self-discovery. [DRM-Free]
