Synopsis
Fiction. Go west with this cowboy movie novel. MacLean recreates the road book and reimagines archetypes of the American West, mixing cyber espionage, marital failure, teen anarchy, and film violence. At once a page-turning mystery, an anatomy of friendship, and a postmodern homage to screen classics. "A witch's brew of marital failure, cyber espionage, teenage anarchy, and the violence of the American Western"--Eugene Garber.
