Bill Warrington has Alzheimer's and his lucid days are numbered. Determined to repair a lifetime of damage to his estranged adult children, Bill takes off with his fifteen-year-old granddaughter April on a cross-country drive, bound for San Francisco, where she dreams of becoming a rock star. As the unlikely pair heads west, Bill leaves clues intended to force his three children--including April's frantic mother--to overcome their mutual distrust and long-held grievances to work together to find them. Exploring themes of aging, sibling rivalry, family dysfunction, and coming of age against a backdrop of the American heartland, Bill Warrington's Last Chance speaks to that universal longing for familial reconciliation, love, and forgiveness.
