This short story collection features tales of people who step into the spotlight but once, stumbling, unintentionally making their way through a brief span of time they will never forget. Don't be surprised if they feel familiar to you.

A desperate man finds redemption in the form of a lost boy in the middle of a southern California desert; an elderly woman takes refuge from Alzheimer's in her rose garden; two young sisters leave Arizona and their father to head for Alabama and an uncertain future; a lonely man intrigued by an obituary photo begins an odyssey of revelation; a woman's chance encounter in an antique stop results in a mystical experience, and a young girl recalls her poignant last visit with her uncle before his suicide.

These are but a few of the wild stories from wild women Carmi Cosmos and Sarah Bates. Read them all!
