Product Description
In Andrew Plattner's new story collection, A MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE, characters try to improve their odds, on the racetrack and in life. In "Runaway," teenager Hawley Bolton longs to run away from his wealthy home to join racetrackers like Helen, who tells him, "remember something good always happens at the racetrack....
