I thought I had it. There is a book on Amazon called The Road authored by Jack London. Jack Lisowski doesn't come from London, but Jack Karnehm did. :chin:

Jackson Page?

‘Jack’s on page’ maybe referring to the fact Kerouac’s book On The Road was about his own travels in America, and narrated by himself as the character Sal Paradise.

Ash Carty?

K is the chemical symbol of potassium > aka potash > Ash that pots
