\n

After deciding to take a semester off their studies to think about future plans, long-time friends Maya, Sirma, and Spartacus decide to hitchhike to the sea. Boril Krustev, former rock star and middle-aged widower who is driving aimlessly to outrun his grief, picks them up and accompanies them on their journey. It doesn\u2019t take them long to figure out they\u2019re connected to each other by more than their need to travel\u2014specifically through Boril\u2019s daughter, whose actions damaged each of the characters in this novel. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
