Book Synopsis

For fans of Darius the Great Is Not Okay comes an escapist and emotional YA coming-of-age novel following a father-son road trip across Spain, with a dash of mystery, from James Beard Award-winning author Michael Ruhlman.

Miles is known as the guy whose mom died. Uprooted from his life in NYC, he's starting junior year in Cleveland with a dad he barely knows. His father, Jake, runs a movie theater that scrapes by playing old black-and-white and foreign films.

Luckily, a renowned Spanish director's latest film is set to make its North American debut at the theater's spring festival--until the director unexpectedly pulls out, throwing the fate of the theater and Jake's livelihood into a tailspin. Deciding to take matters into his own hands, Jake brings Miles along on a wild goose chase across the cobblestone streets of Spain to find the filmmaker.

What starts as a shot-in-the-dark attempt to change the director's mind turns into an unexpected journey toward connection as Miles and his father must navigate their grief over losing his mom. James Beard Award-winning author Michael Ruhlman pens a powerful tale about moving through grief and into the broader world.
