About this listen

They told me I was an out-of-control train about to crash.

Everything changed when the police officer knocked on the door to tell me – a 16-year-old – that my older sister Kristen had died of a brain aneurysm. Cue the start of my parents neglecting me and my whole life spiraling out of control. I decided now was the perfect time to skip town. It’s the early '90s: Kurt Cobain ran the grunge music scene and I just experienced some serious trauma. What’s a girl supposed to do? I didn’t want to end up like Kristen, so I grabbed my bucket list, turned up my mixtape of the greatest '90s hits and fled L.A. The goal was to end up at Kurt Cobain’s house in Seattle, but I never could have guessed what would happen along the way.

Critic reviews

"Raw. Riveting. Runaway Train stays true to its title as it explores the deep pain of a teenager desperately trying to find peace in a world full of pain. Lee Matthew Goldberg is a master at bestowing sympathy and strength on deeply flawed characters. Realistic and shocking, hopeful and satisfying, Runaway Train will keep readers turning the page." -- USA Today Bestselling Author Rebecca Forster|"It's an incredibly challenging task for an author to utilize a darkly comedic tone without coming across as disingenuous--but Goldberg executes it here with expert precision. Brimming over with the visceral atmosphere of the early 90s grunge era, RUNAWAY TRAIN is a must-read for those willing to buckle up for the ride." --Peter Malone Elliott (Director of Operations, Book Pipeline)|"An engaging '90s pastiche with an earnest heart beating at its center." -- Kirkus Reviews
