An unexpected gift. An unforgettable adventure. A young woman's eyes and heart are opened. Following her hilarious novel FLIPKA, JT Twissel brings us another unlikely heroine—an anti-war, hippy waif on a first trip to Europe to visit her raunchy (but humorous and harmless) uncle, who is an army accountant or very possibly a CIA spy. As a "graduation present", twenty-year-old Riley O'Tannen flies to Germany fully expecting to skip through the Alps picking daisies as she spreads the word about love and peace in countries still building after a devastating war. She does not expect to spend each night extracting her uncle from a bar on the American base. Nor does she expect to be interrogated by the Swiss police, fend off gypsies in the Paris metro, or unwittingly gush over Nazi memorabilia. Last but not least, she certainly doesn't expect to fall in love.
