Lonely Way Back Home - Patricia Hope - Bog

Justin Turner has wanted to play and sing since he was a boy growing up in East Tennessee, but no one in his family understands his love of music, so he runs away. He thinks his time has come when he is gifted a special guitar and winds up playing with Elvis. But, Lady Luck is a fickle companion, Justin soon learns after he loses his job, loses his first love, and nearly loses his life. From dishwasher to building cars in Detroit; from backhoe operator to a bear encounter; from a potato farm to a fishing boat in the North Pacific, Justin can't stop moving. From a logging camp in Oregon to the streets of LA . . . to the next town, the next job, the next gig, crisscrossing the country, Justin meets a troupe of characters, some wanting to support him and some wanting to do him harm, but all, pushing him toward that "golden ring" of success; if only he could grasp it!
