DEBUT Novel
A flunking college student drops out to chase a dream of traveling west to live the ski bum life. In Colorado Jimmy finds a home amongst a group of like-minded, often degenerate, ski bums whose lives of adventure seem far more appealing than what he left behind. At Silver Mountain, Jimmy realizes a ski town is the ideal place for young people to raise a middle finger to societal norms and do as they please. Jimmy and crew live a spontaneous life of partying, hot tub poaching & illicit sledding; living scrappy and poor in a place where rich people vacation.
In the sport he loves and its accompanying culture, Jimmy is chasing a high. He questions whether he's come to the mountains to experience just a taste or to succumb to it completely, all while trying not to fall victim to the excesses of resort life. When an impromptu road trip turns catastrophic, Jimmy's relationships and newfound sense of freedom are strained to a breaking point. As ski season becomes spring, Jimmy struggles to find his own path forward-if there is a path at all.
