26 Miles
The custody battle was eight years ago; the road trip destination is two thousand miles across the country. The mother’s skin is brown, the daughter’s, white. So what if reality’s nipping at their heels? This reunited pair runs fast and furious from the men in their lives, hunting down valuable antiques, following arctic explorers, and getting lost in Wyoming’s wilderness.
