"It's springtime in Oklahoma and Ernie, an outcast in a group of outcasts, feels uneasy. The whole decrepit compound where Ernie and his fellow oddballs have been crashing has been on edge ever since a new girl arrived, a teenager named Coral unceremoniously abandoned by a minivan one afternoon. Even more mysterious, Coral doesn't say a word. When a drug lab explosion burns the compound to the ground, Ernie, Coral, and adrenaline-fueled biker couple Staci and Ray escape on a pair of motorcycles and hit the road. Shaky with fear, the four strangers find a rundown house in rural Texas: a place to stay, they tell themselves, for now.Yet to their surprise, they each take cautious steps towards new beginnings, planting seeds, and slowly, uncertainly, forming a family. But when the fire's terrible aftermath finally finds them, the group must confront the consequences of such unlikely love--the sort found only in lonely places--and their safe haven becomes a much more dangerous place"-- Provided by publisher
