    About this audiobook

    Set against the rise and fall of the radical antiwar group the Weather Underground, The Company You Keep is a sweeping American saga about sacrifice, the ecstatic righteousness of youth, and the tension between political ideals and family loyalties. When Jason Sinai, one of the last Vietnam-era fugitives still wanted on murder charges for a robbery gone wrong in 1974, encounters a young newspaper reporter in search of a story, he must abandon years of safe underground life for the dangerous life of the road - traveling across America and deep into his past. It is a vivid re-creation of lives lived underground - of battle-scarred veterans, ideologues, profiteers, criminals, and bystanders.

      Halfway through and compulsive. Yet perhaps it alludes to a mystery which will never quite be revealed.
