Synopsis

Early in the 1980s, Gracie -- a runaway, street girl, and stripper -- loses Marcus, her best friend and lover, to AIDS. But just before he dies, Marcus makes Gracie promise to have a child in his memory.

It's a promise she can't break. So Gracie hits the road, looking for a man to father the child she's terrified of having. From trailer park to small-town jail, from sordid clubs to the cab of an eighteen-wheeler, her journey is shadowed by danger, by nightmares, and by the terrible secret she's never shared.

Friends, lovers, enemies --none of them can write their names on Gracie's heart. As the miles pile up, and things get more desperate, Gracie finally has to wonder: Will this quest give her something to live for? Or will it be the death of her?
