“Spin is a thrilling story that will keep the reader breathless until the end. This mostly true story begins with a bored housewife and mother in the 1890’s who takes a wager to circle the world on a bicycle.

This tale will stay with you long after Annie’s last ride.” — The Southern Bookseller Review
