Luke Patrick is gagged and bound, drenched in gasoline. Claudio holds a flickering Zippo in his face. What had gone wrong? Why were they doing this to him? Luke had done them no harm.This is the focal point of The Pharr Bridge. It is the story of Luke Patrick, a young American whose adventure begins when he receives a phone call from an old friend. That call sets in motion a cascade of events that includes murder, a cover-up, and a desperate run for the Mexican border. Along the way Luke endures an avalanche that entombs him in a mountain cabin, and a storm that sets him adrift in an open boat on the merciless Atlantic Ocean. The physical journey is paralleled by an emotional and psychological one. He suffers painful guilt and remorse. He is betrayed and beaten. But the greatest challenge is his unrequited love for a beautiful prostitute.
