Grit & Grace: A Tale on Two Wheels

Grace McKinnon is running - not only from her PTSD, but from long - kept secrets. She trades the stark, concrete walls of the prison where she works as a Correctional Officer for the beautiful chaos of a motorcycle trek across Central and South America. Perched on her late uncle’s BMW Bumble Bee, she hopes the engine’s rhythmic roar will drown out the ghosts of her past and the jagged memories of the dark justice she once meted out in a split-second during prison cell chaos. But the open road has a way of exposing what we try to hide. While navigating the grit, gravel, and wild switchbacks of a foreign terrain, a sudden family tragedy forces a blunt force disruption. The cold North beckons her back with a series of chilling betrayals, each one leading to the puppet - master of her family’s disintegration: Aunt Brenda. While her childhood history implodes in her rearview mirror, the eclectic tribe she meets along her journey forces her to confront the light and the deep shadow within her own soul - the grace and the grit. At a crossroads in the heart of the Andes mountains, Grace must decide: Does she return to pick up the pieces of a life built on lies and face a calculating predator; or keep the throttle open toward a new - found freedom and a future of her own design?
