Product Description
After more than twenty years of bad decisions and spectacular personal failures, Frank Stevens, a lifelong underachiever, needs a drastic change. The day he is unceremoniously fired from his job he arrives home to find empty space. All of his belongings are gone, and so is his live-in girlfriend, Jackie. But things only get worse. Four months later, on the brink of eviction and vaguely suicidal, Frank’s salvation appears in the form of Danny Loughman, a nearly forgotten and barely recognizable childhood friend. Danny asks for what seems like a simple favor: a ride home. Easy enough, until Frank learns that “home” is a thousand miles away from his run-down, suburban Connecticut apartment. Seeing Danny’s request as an opportunity to escape his miserable existence, Frank spontaneously embarks on a four-day long road trip with his old friend. The journey forces Frank to evaluate his true character and discover the man he still could be. He has a chance at redemption if he can pull himself together, provided he isn’t completely insane…
