From the Publisher:
"Just after midnight in a small town in Wisconsin, eight women begin walking together down a rural highway. Career women,
housewives, mothers, divorcees, and one ex-prom queen, they are close friends who have been meeting every Thursday night for
years, sharing food, wine, and their deepest secrets. But on this particular Thursday, Susan, Alice, Chris, Sandy, Mary, Joanne,
and Janice decide to disappear from their own lives."
Their spontaneous pilgrimage attracts national attention and inspires other women from all across the country. As the
miles fall away and the women forge ahead on their backroads odyssey - leaving small miracles in their wake - each of their
histories unfolds, tales of shattered dreams and unexpected renewal, of thwarted love affairs and precious second chances.
