But mostly sex and death, because often we have to choose between the two at some crucial moment in our lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn one story, a professor with a drinking problem wins half a billion dollars on the Powerball--but has to fight old habits to claim his winnings in time. In another, a girl with an awkward smile and shiftless parents finds herself on track to secure a powerful job--until a strange new nighttime hobby imperils her future. And in another, a fifteen-year-old truant is sent to a mysterious religious sect in the high desert of Northern California--only to discover an awful truth that will set her running again. Dillian navigates through geographies and time periods with ease, creating distinctive personalities with one common thread: they all are fighting for their lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFilled with memorable characters, unforgettable twists, and dramatic insights into human nature, this is a page-turning, thought-provoking collection for any lover of the art of story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-5658568\"\u003eJared Dillian\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Seven Cats Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/23\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.61d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798990944701\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-LCO\"\u003eLiterary Collections\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-LCO002000\"\u003eAmerican | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seven Cats Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47362130215149,"sku":"9798990944701","price":23.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/files\/img_16db880e-6f4c-4ea3-a35f-310adf5193ca.jpg?v=1731722555","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/night-moves-and-other-stories-9798990944701","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
