August 10th, from 1:00-3:00pm is your chance to meet author Jennifer Bradbury and pick up a copy of her exciting new book, Shift.
When Chris Collins and Winston Coggans take off on a post-graduation cross-country bike trek, Chris's hopes are high. He's looking forward to seeing the country, dodging a dull summer at a minimum wage job, and having one final adventure with his oldest friend. The journey delivers all those things... and more.
So much more that when Chris returns home without Win at the end of the summer, he's certain their 10 year friendship is all but over. But when an FBI agent begins asking questions, he learns that saying goodbye to a friend like Win is never as simple as riding away. Shift offers an adventure story and a missing person's tale spinning around a single question: What happens when you outgrow your best friend?
How about a sneak preview of Shift?
