Drifting (Augusta)

About the Book

Jake goes through his life living in six- to nine-year life segments, new name, new position, new state, new city, new everything. He is totally aware of everything that he has encountered in all eight or nine segments and has yet to reach his twenty-eighth birthday due to one camping trip, one damn trip. Because of the trip, the government, and happenstance, he was changed, and he now changes the lives of many in many ways. Some good and some not so good, this book is the story of his Augusta, Georgia, segment of life.
