In this epic drama from beloved radio personality Tom Bodett, a host of unforgettable characters from the end of the road - Alaska - venture to the lower 48 to discover an America they barely recognize. The first to arrive is Ed Flannigan, who has one arm, no job, and not a clue about how to get on with his life. Somehow he winds up in Quartz Creek, Oregon, contending with New Age colonists, organic vegetables, and a cranky old farmer who gives him peculiar and good advice about growing peaches. Meanwhile, Lloyd and Evelyn Decker leave home and hit the road in a powder blue Road Ranger to find their wayward children; Oliver the Dreamer, a soft-spoken amnesiac, finds a home and a family under a bridge in Seattle; and Webster Cummings, a statistical research analyst, survives a fall from a commuter plane to bring together these and other strange and wonderful characters for an unexpected revelation that alters all their lives.

Tom Bodett grew up in Michigan and settled in Alaska twenty years ago. He became a nationally known radio personality through his work with National Public Radio's "All Things Considered," and his syndicated variety program "The End of the Road Radio Show." He is also widely known for his advertising work including those for Motel 6, "We'll Leave the Light on For You," and claims it is the only line he ever needed to say. Bodett raises his son in Homer, Alaska, and makes frequent odysseys South.
