The Emerald Turtle
The Emerald Turtle is a ‘coming of age no matter the age’ story where the protagonist finds her authentic self despite a life of rules, training and inhibition. When a loyal White House aide weeps her way home after Nixon’s resignation speech and finds her boy-next-door fiancé in bed with her brother, she runs away from her picture-perfect life and mistakenly hops on a cross country hippie tour bus that changes the very essence of who she thought she was.
