The Road South: A Novel

by Richard Donatone

When Mund first met Che in New York, there was an instant attraction for both. Her looks, her spontaneity, and her witchy intensity were a real turn-on, so when she asked him to drive with her to her family's house near Chesapeake Bay, he jumped at the chance to spend more time with her. It would be a fun trip. To suggest that he had no idea what he was getting himself into would be a real understatement. Within hours of arriving at their destination, he had been knocked out, and when he came to, his world had changed. Left alone to face the repercussions of a drug deal gone bad, they had been robbed and left with the car the drug dealers were looking for, and were being chased by men intent on killing them. Mund seizes on everything he's learned over a lifetime and tries to apply them to stay alive. Will it be enough?
