His only emotional ties are to his parents and to the memory of his older sister Bethany, who has been missing for twenty years. Then his parents die in a car crash and he learns of Bethany's death in LA Country. Drunk and bereft, he takes his old Raleigh bicycle and starts cycling. Once he starts, he finds he cant's stop. Smithy's ride is an extraordinary quest, to rediscover the past and memories of Bethany- but it is also his journey back to life."--Cover. | ||
