Driftin' Man
Luke Tarrin has spent most of his life drifting.
Raised in a fading Rust Belt town shaped by layoffs, broken families, and the long shadow of the post-Vietnam generation, Luke leaves home searching for something larger than the life waiting for him there at the turn of the 21st century.
From tugboats and river towns to backwater kitchens and highways stretching across the American South, he moves from job to job with little more than a guitar, a duffel bag, and the weight of a past he never learned how to outrun.
Along the way, he falls for Melissa, a quietly resilient Cajun woman whose presence leaves a permanent mark on his restless life. But after Hurricane Katrina devastates the Gulf Coast, old memories and unfinished responsibilities begin pulling Luke back toward the people and choices he spent years trying to escape.
Driftin' Man is a gritty and heartfelt American novel about loss, wandering, survival, and the quiet search for belonging in a ever changing restless world.
