Riding Shotgun
About
Be careful what you wish for…
For Evelyn and her three friends, the daily drive between their homes in Cromwell and their workplaces in Queenstown is a long and exhausting one, even at the best of times. In the middle of a high-country winter, the journey can be downright treacherous. With it her turn behind the wheel, Evelyn nurses her aging Honda through the misty, pre-dawn gloom. Threading the icy switchbacks of the Kawarau Gorge, she longs for a break in the routine, a little excitement to spice up her life. Her mind begins to wander, but as the fog gets thicker, her thoughts get darker…
A thought-provoking tale of circumstance, camaraderie, and commuting, Riding Shotgun is the second instalment in a series of surprising and darkly humorous short stories. While loosely connected, each story in the saga stands alone and they can be read in any order. If you like relatable characters, amusing dialogue, and action spiced with both comedy and drama, then you’ll love J.B. Reynolds’s Crossing the Divide short story series.
