A novel of book lovers chased by madmen.Keith Clark's new girl had golden hair and eyes as gray as the North Sea in winter. Her name was Erika Johnson, and not only was she a real cutie, but she could also quote Robert Burns in the original Scots. Keith was very definitely in love with Erika, but there was one problem with their relationship-she categorically refused to meet with him outside the coffee shop where she worked. But everything changed for Keith and Erika when they were framed for a murder they didn't commit. Branded as outlaws, they must flee for their lives from their homes near Santa Barbara, California. They race across California by car and train-and on foot, when they must-as they try to keep one step ahead of the police and of the soldiers of the ruthless drug lord who framed them. The Fugitives Book Club is a tale of two fugitive lovers on the run, who fight to stay alive with everything they've got. They've got brains, they've got motivation, and they've got friends they can turn to for help. And if their friends won't help them willingly, then Keith and Erika have got the resolve to persuade them to change their minds.
