Tantric Coconuts: A Novel

A new novel—and new direction—from the bestselling author of A Dog Named Christmas

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance meets Life of Pi meets On the Road meets Travels with Charley in this quirky spiritual journey across the wild highways and byways of America.

Free spirit Angel Two Sparrows—artist and musician extraordinaire—is having trouble making ends meet. On the verge of desperation, she inherits her crazy aunt Lilly's bookmobile and half-wolf named No Barks and dreams up yet another life plan. Painting her business card on the side of the minivan, Angel and her trusty companion set off on a pilgrimage across America hoping to jump-start her new profession: Native American spiritual consultant. Traveling in the other direction on a much-needed vacation—and in need of spiritual nourishment—is Teddy Day, with his Irish terrier mix, Argo. When he leaves Kansas, Ted can't image how far from his sleepy law office that old silver-and-black Winnebago 32RQ Chieftain will take him.

Two lives collide—literally—in an RV park, and when the dust settles, Ted and Angel find themselves enamored. They set off together on a crazy road trip, detouring into some rarely traveled corridors of the human soul. Very soon, nothing will ever be the same for these travelers, their dogs, and, heck, the world at large.
