Sytten år gamle Veronica Clarke har aldri i sitt liv ønsket å få negativt resultat på en prøve - helt til hun stirrer på en plastpinne med to tydelige rosa streker på. Med ett er den lovende collegefremtiden i ferd med å fordufte foran øynene på henne, og Veronica står overfor et valg hun aldri trodde hun måtte ta - abort. Det er bare ett problem, og det er at den nærmeste klinikken ligger over 140 mil unna. Veronica har konservative foreldre, en ... skal vi si ikke helt optimal kjæreste, og ikke tilgang på bil, så hun oppsøker den eneste hun tror ikke kommer til å dømme henne: Bailey Butler - Jefferson Highs sagnomsuste utskudd og Veronicas tidligere bestevenn. Planen er ganske enkel. Det tar fjorten timer å kjøre til klinikken, tre timer å få aborten unnagjort og fjorten timer å kjøre tilbake. Hvor galt kan det egentlig gå? «Denne boka har alt.» Stephen Chbosky, forfatter av THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER

Hysteerisen hauska roadtrip-tarina ystävyyden voimastaVeronica Clarke ei ole koskaan halunnut saada hylättyä kokeesta tai testistä - ennen kuin pitelee kädessään muovista tikkua, jonka näyttöön on piirtynyt kaksi viivaa.Käy ilmi, että kondomit eivät estä raskautta, jos poikaystävä on tökkinyt niihin neulalla reikiä.Raskaus täytyy saada keskeytettyä heti alkuunsa, mutta lähin laillinen aborttiklinikka on kolmen osavaltion päässä.Veronican mieleen tulee vain yksi ihminen, jonka ei usko tuomitsevan häntä: lukion syrjäytynein ja sarkastisin olento, Bailey Butler.Tien päällä edessä on kavalkadi varastettuja autoja, panttilainaamo, hullu ex-poikaystävä, frettejä ja limusiinikuski nimeltä Bob. Ja edessä on myös tyttöjen välienselvittely, jossa Veronica saa tajuta, että vika ei aina ole muissa ihmisissä.Jenni Hendriks ja Ted Caplan ovat käsikirjoittajia, jotka ovat olleet mukana luomassa mm. sitcomia How I Met Your Mother.Juno-elokuvan hengessä kirjoitettu Tosi raskas reissu on hillitön roadtrip-tarina matkasta aikuisuuteen, ystävyyden voimasta ja naisen oikeudesta päättää omasta kehostaan.
