Chas is running away from the wreckage that is his world, sixteen hundred miles away. In Denver Ramie and Chas meet Mae B. LaRoux, an enchanting young singer from Baton Rouge. LaRoux, who struggles with a learning disability, is on a mission to become a professional musician. the three runaways band together and set out on a fast-paced road trip to get to the Austin Music Festival, looking for Refeather on the way. They're on the road -- but it ain't Jack Kerouac's road trip! A finalist in Foreword's Book of the Year 2013 Award, Young Adult category.
