Sinopsis

TD is an artist and former football player who has a sore ass from long-haul trucking. He',s thinking about taking a year off just to paint and hang out with his girlfriend, Linda Sue, when his trucker friend Flynn proposes an armored car heist. TD-short for Tommy Dennison and Trucker Dude-agrees to go along with the elaborate plan, despite serious misgivings. He quits his trucking job, but not before a final run from Seattle to Miami. On the road he meets Jason, a hitchhiking singer-songwriter with hippie and religious tendencies. Jason was studying for the priesthood, but his sideline as a chick magnet derailed that career course. As they gradually become friends, TD confides his qualms about the heist. He also has qualms about marriage, but Linda Sue is getting tired of her girlfriend status, giving TD a lot to think about out there on the highway of life.ááJohn Foley is a writer, teacher and artist living in Prescott Valley, Arizona.
