About This Book
Young Americans take to the road in droves during the volatile 1960's. Some flee a military draft that demands they kill or be killed in a war halfway around the world. Others search for excitement, a temporary reprieve from the prison of work, school, marriage or family. And one, the Drifter, has a particularly compelling reason to hitchhike the country's highways. He carries a dark secret that, if revealed, could cost his freedom. Or his life.Now, it's late 1965. The Drifter, camped in central Idaho, stumbles across a woman's body. Though his first instinct is self-preservation, he decides to give the corpse a decent burial. Bad idea. Discovered by a search party and wounded by a bullet, the Drifter is chased through Idaho's rugged wilderness. He runs for his life, headlong into a baffling mystery involving UFOs and murder.It will take all the Drifter's cunning - and lots of luck - to survive, as Kissing Asphalt pits him in a harrowing life or death struggle against Nature, against his fellow man, and against himself.The first in an exciting new series.
