by Jennifer Bradbury (Author)
Some friends fade away....Others disappear. Now in paperback, a riveting mystery that will "keep the pages turning" (Chris Crutcher, author of Staying Fat for Sarah Byrnes).
Imagine you and your best friend head out West on a cross-country bike trek. Imagine that you get into a fight--the cheap SOB won't kick in any cash--and you stop riding together. Imagine you reach Seattle, go home alone, and start college. Imagine you think your former best friend does too. Imagine he didn't, that he was carrying more than $20,000 in cash the whole trip, and that now the FBI is looking for him. Imagine your world shifting....
Shift is a breathtaking tour-de-force that explores the depths of loyalty and friendship--and the unknowable depths of another person.
