Ransom, R: TRUTH TRIPPERS

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A road trip with epic twists and turns. Loner and budding engineer Lodan Dawson's countdown to his sixteenth birthday is nearing its final month. Lodan's mom has been uncharacteristically reluctant to produce his birth certificate to obtain his driver's license. His mother claims it's in the attic safe and can't recall the combination. Lizzy, a seventeen-year-old nomenclature obsessed, tenacious, homeschooler has just moved in next door. Lizzy seamlessly interjects herself into Lodan and his mother's insulated life. Lizzy's long-distance boyfriend has ghosted her on social media and cracking the safe with Lodan is a welcome distraction. Inside the safe, Lodan finds proof his mom has kept him from knowing the rest of their family. This hits hard since he has vainly begged for information about his father from a young age. Lizzy proposes the perfect solution: a truth seeking road trip to confront her boyfriend and Lodan's secret family.They pillage their pantries, college and car funds, and sneak off in Lodan's mom's car to cross the United States in search of answers. Initially Lodan envies Lizzy's apparent beyond her years knowledge of how life works, but when they learn the truth about her boyfriend Mateo, Lodan comes to the realization that maybe he isn't the only person his age a little lost in the world of adolescence. Shortly after digesting the horrifying truth about Lodan's mother, they are faced with a near death experience that helps accelerate the process of clarity. As unexpected as black ice, their truth-seeking endeavors create a domino effect, disrupting the lives of many more people than they anticipated. They begin to wonder if learning the truth could be even more painful than living the lie Can Lodan and Lizzy forgive for the sake of love, friendship and family. Artikel-Nr. 9780989017480
