Grampa's Keys

By Michael Mourning

Travel the highways and backroads from Minnesota to Nevada in search of treasure and truth in early 60's middle America."Grampa's Keys" open secrets reaching back in time and stretching out across the landscape as described by 14 year old Rickey while he rides along in a beat up car with an old man he hardly knows. The boy values trust, respect, and hard work,qualities he's learned from his single mother. The old man and his cohorts smoke, drink, and covort in beer joints and truckstops, arguing and fighting across thousands of miles, each after a reward that only the keys can provide.
