Months after the accident that changed his life forever, Nico Meyer just wants things to go back to the way they were. A solo trip across historical Route 66 seems to be the soul-searching journey he needs--until a snarky stowaway derails all of his plans.
On par with the rest of his life, Eli Tenney manages to lose everything in a single night. An honest mistake--and some fast talking--gives him the chance to postpone his return to the real world, as long as he doesn't drive the grumpy professor at his side completely crazy.
Featuring a psychedelic van, a snarky Greek god, a plethora of donkeys, and, of course, a hotel with only one bed, Mother Road is the story of two lost souls learning that on life's highway, there's no turning back.
