While riding a freight car through Detroit, Michael Slater suffers a near-fatal accident—a power line to the head. After a questionable recovery and a broken relationship, he abandons his new home in the Arizona desert, though not before leaving a man for dead. Slater returns to Michigan in a busted-up Ford to reunite with an old train-hopping pal, but quickly discovers that the Pleasant Peninsula of his youth is none too pleasant. As Slater’s past catches up with his present—a love triangle, a local drug dealer, the damaged residents of a destitute Northern Michigan town—rock bottom keeps slipping farther away. Three years later, Slater sits in a dark video-editing suite, popping speed like penny candy, attempting to reconcile himself with the unfilmed memories that haunt his screens and his conscience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tin House Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47051320066288,"sku":"9781935639053","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781935639053_p0.jpg?v=1769897310","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781935639053","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
