The Lost Migration

In small-town West Texas, Otis Billings prepares to leave home for college. As soon as he steps off the family ranch, he finds a world filled with intrigue, intoxication, and boundless possibility. Avoiding the painful truth of his past, Otis decides to quit the life he has and sets out on a quest to find greatness. Living out of his truck, he explores the American Southwest, and pierces the heart of Mexico in search of a story to tell. All the while, ignoring his own.

THE LOST MIGRATION is a story of self discovery in which a young man refuses to give up his desire to be great. This novel will take readers on a journey prompted by the deterioration of childhood, similar to the journey in Cormac McCarthy's All The Pretty Horses. Fans of W. Somerset Maugham's The Razor's Edge will enjoy seeing the main character thrust into a world that he barely understands yet voraciously indulges in.
