Synopsis

The Bus Ride, set in 1957, is the story of Karen, a sixteen-year-old girl being sent across the state on a bus to a home for unwed mothers. She is unaware that an illegal abortion has been arranged shortly after her arrival at the home. When her seventeen-year-old boyfriend, Peter, discovers this evil plan created by his parents and Karen's grandmother, he begins to chase the bus to save their child. His well-to-do parents realize what Peter is doing and begin chasing him to stop him from making a horrible mistake of marrying this girl from the wrong side of the tracks. As Karen travels on the backroads bus, her quite spirituality touches the other passengers, bringing hope back into their lives. On his own for the first time in his life, Peter encounters many interesting people while hitchhiking after his love.

About the Author

Malcolm D. Beebe was born just before the start of World War II. As the son of a lawyer and a high school English teacher, he spent his entire childhood in the quiet village of Kenmore, New York. He started writing poetry in high school and believed then that he should become a writer. Thirty-five years later he was given the time, while incarcerated in a Tennessee prison, to realize his teenage dream by writing his inspirational fiction. Malcolm earned a B.S. degree in Political Science from the University of Rochester in Rochester, New York, leading to a brief career as a computer programmer. The spirituality expressed in his writings is drawn from his early life and his experiences while raising two families.
