About the Book

2022 Readers' Favorite award winner in non-fiction adventure

2022 Best Book Awards Finalist in Travel Guides & Essays

In 1969, naïve 19-year-old American Paul Gorman found himself alone and locked inside a jail in Spain's Canary Islands facing up to six years in prison.

Five months earlier, Gorman had left home seeking adventure, avoiding the draft and escaping a domineering father. Bound for Europe, he hitchhikes across North America encountering cops and cons. Greeted by frigid weather in Germany, he bicycles south searching out sunny beaches. Grifting the streets, struggling to survive, his troubles explode. In steps the U.S. government with a clever plan to rescue him...and with ulterior motives of its own.

Filled with danger and sprinkled with humor, Gorman's solo journey is the dramatic true tale of a young man searching for adventure, his place in the world, and the transformation he undergoes. Along the lines of Into The Wild by Jon Krakauer, Midnight Express by Billy Hayes, and Catch Me If You Can by Frank Abagnale, this riveting tale will captivate and intrigue adventurers young and old.
