Description

From "a brilliant spawn of Raymond Carver and Flannery O'Connor" (Elle) comes a novel starring an exhilarating cast of characters that reflects the search, not just for home, but for self.

Willie and Liberty are drifters. They break into Florida vacation homes while the owners are away, stay a while, and then move on. They have been lovers since they were teenagers, yet Liberty now senses that Willie is drifting away from her—that their search, so relentless and mysterious, is becoming increasingly dangerous.
