The Cross-Country Journey of Maishe Rosstein

A middle-aged man determines to leave his home near the Ohio and Missouri rivers in search of new-found adventures. Along the way he takes in an interesting and unusual woman who then become his companion-sexually and as friends. They encounter dangerous situations meetings and escaping from danger numerous times in regular places as well as in national monuments. Indeed one is reminded of Hitchcockian settings. The companions must use their wits and their physical training eventually to bring an evil force to its end in a highly dramatic climax at the Pacific Ocean's edge near LA.
