Maps for the getaway : a novel / Annie England Noblin.

Includes reading group guide.

It was the road trip of their lives... and they did it without a map. When they posed for a photo at their high school graduation, they vowed they'd be friends forever, but teenage promises are so easily broken, and now, thirty years later, they're practically strangers. Cici--stuck in a rut, married to a cheating husband. Genie--caring for her ailing father but never getting any thanks. Kate--everyone knows people who look perfect on Instagram are not. And Laurie--the most successful of them all--now tragically gone. So, to celebrate Laurie's life, three former friends in a 1962 red Lincoln Continental convertible take the road trip of their lives--encountering male strippers, a boy band that has seen better days, crazy motel rooms, adopting a so-ugly-it's-cute stray dog...and discovering that it's never too late to live the wild life. Because, sometimes, to find yourself you have to get away.
