"Old people aren't supposed to have a purpose," says Sheriff Lewis Radisson. "You just fish until you drool and then go to a home." Is that true? Sam Grant is getting older but no wiser, and his penchant for adventure lands him in the worst trouble yet.

Grant will travel to both ends of the New World to evade kidnappers, a hangman's noose and a persistent killer with a big rifle. He will struggle with the cares that haunt all of us and the secrets that can kill us. It's all to acquire one new piece of native wisdom: When you get old and everything is gone - everything you have spent a lifetime building - can you still find a purpose?
