Why this story must be read:

This is a nice, long, meaty case story set pre-series. What's more, it's got wonderful character development and nifty psychological tension as well. Plus some titillating - and unique - insight into what exactly went wrong in Hutch's marriage to Vanessa. Unusual for this fandom, Van is actually presented as a fully fleshed human being.

But really, the story is about Starsky and his relationship with Hutch. And Starsky's background. And his family, and all sorts of other juicy details that you can't afford to miss.

Read it! You'll love it!

Why this must be read:

Because roadtrip stories are awesome. And in the case of this team, hilarious. Rodney bitches, Teyla makes intelligent observations that get lost in all the bickering, Ronon...does Ronon-type things, and John drives them all in the wrong direction. And there is an eggplant. And everything is AWESOME, full of crisp dialogue and brought startlingly to life by the author. If you just need a quick hit of happy, team-y goodness, this is it.

... and that's how a McDonalds drive-through works," Rodney said as he pulled his arm back into the SUV, passing sacks of food across to the others.

Teyla latched happily onto her McFlurry. "I gather that your people do not ordinarily prepare food in their homes?" she asked, holding up a French fry like some strange form of alien life.
