YA
In this survival adventure, the characters must survive each other as much as the unforgiving landscape. Arizona-bound brothers Jonah and Simon catch a ride with flirtatious Lilly and ominous Mitch. During an increasingly tense road trip, their relationships constantly shift. The book's 1970 setting is vivid, the plot suspenseful, and the personalities complex and intriguing, particularly in their interactions.
