YOU SHALL KNOW OUR VELOCITY is the story of two young Americans, Will and Hand, who decide to travel around the world in a week and give away a large sum of money. Their friend Jack has died in a shocking and meaningless accident, and this whirlwind and expensive trip will, they hope, be an answer to their overwhelming grief. But, as they soon find out, nothing is quite so simple - they find it much harder to get round the world than they expect and almost as hard to get rid of the money.
This is a very personal story as well as a sly allegory for American intervention abroad, and Will and Hand are the most unlikely benefactors . . .
