About this audiobook
They are four different people with four separate lives: Sue, a young woman distanced from her native roots; David, a traveler in search of a dream; Laura, a student seeking her parents’ understanding; and Peter, a rock star struggling to create a perfect sound.
One looming fate threatens them all. And everything they love may be taken away in one fleeting second…
“Paulsen is one of the best-loved writers alive.” – New York Times
“Powerful, simple stories…[Paulsen] writes clearly and honestly…” – Entertainment Weekly

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Strange story about four different people; a girl who wants to be allowed to farm sheep alongside her family, a Mexican who sneaks across the border to pick beets etc. The story doesn't really seem to come together - kind of weird.
