12 Miles to Farmington

12 Miles to Farmington

by Steve Tribbitt

Adventures and unexpected twists unfold in a nostalgic hometown journey.

ABOUT THE BOOK

Thirteen-year-old Wayne Messick leaves behind a home that never felt like home and sets out on a twelve-mile bicycle ride that will change everything.

Along the way, he gathers unlikely treasures, meets a blues-playing stranger named Amos, and discovers that some kindnesses feel like magic.

Told with raw honesty, humor, and the imagination that kept him alive, 12 Miles to Farmington is a coming-of-age story about loneliness, belonging, survival, and the people who can change a life without ever knowing it.

A few seconds may hold an entire lifetime.

Book One of The Wayne Trilogy.
