Route 66

On a hot summer day in 1932, Andy Connors, who owns a garage that serves Route 66, finds himself in major trouble: He's been bitten by a rabid skunk.

The "Voice of America's Heartland" delivers the second novel in her Depression-era trilogy that celebrates the fabled Route 66. Ernie Harding may have stolen Margie Kinnard's savings, but he doesn't shatter her dreams of going to California to become a movie star.
