Bennett Edwards is divorced, distant from his college-age son, and desperate to feel something again. So he does the only reasonable thing: drives from New York to Michigan to track down his long-lost college girlfriend. When that plan fizzles, he agrees-without much thought-to drive her MMA-fighter daughter, Zoe, and her crusty trainer Hector to a bout in Utah.Somewhere between cornfields, sketchy motels, and a trucker who doesn’t drive trucks, Bennett realizes this trip isn’t just about a fight. It’s about a body. In a trunk. One Bennett is suddenly responsible for helping dispose of-piece by piece. And then he sees the tattoo.Now tangled in a crime he never meant to commit and fiercely protective of a girl he barely knows, Bennett must reckon with what connection actually costs-and what it’s worth.Darkly funny, unexpectedly tender, and packed with bad decisions and weirder friendships, OGALLALA is a story of second chances, sharp turns, and what happens when a man finally stops running from himself.--'Compelling and suspenseful, with characters and locales that often surprise.' - Kirkus'The style itself is intelligent and witty...a really unique literary novel.' - Readers’ Favorite'Filled with unexpected insights on what it takes to be a survivor. OGALLALA is highly recommended for its surprising twists of self-inspection and life engagement.' - D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review'The plot is undeniably engaging. Eichhorn writes with a cinematic rhythm that keeps you alert, amused, and occasionally blindsided. His characters, too, operate on a level of unpredictability that makes them consistently fun to read. Their decisions rarely feel safe or rehearsed, and this refusal to follow familiar emotional patterns adds a distinct charm to the narrative.' - Abha S. for Reedsy Discovery'Ogallala is funny, perplexing, and peppered with sad surprises. It begins with nostalgia and heads toward somewhere far darker, exploring how small compromises can turn the ordinary into the criminal. It’s a story that asks how much we’re willing to ignore for comfort or love. Readers who enjoy character-driven fiction with a psychological edge will find this novel riveting.' - G. Okubo for Independent Book Review
