After being robbed and stranded in California, college professor Robert King accepts a ride from Charlie Walker, a Mississippi truck driver who appears to embody everything Robert believes is wrong with America. But as the two travel 2,700 miles from California to New Jersey, Robert discovers Charlie is far more complicated than he imagined—a former convict, children's author, blues musician's son, devoted grandfather, and a man carrying devastating personal loss. As miles pass beneath the wheels of a Peterbilt, both men are forced to confront their assumptions about politics, class, race, family, and themselves.

Well, I've sent it in a second time as I am unsure what is going on. Query tracker says childrens books or non-fiction, but on their website it looks a little different. I can only shrug.
