Summary

Unlike most people who set goals for themselves, Alexander Myles had a very specific interpretation of success. His sister was a world-renowned neurosurgeon, and his brother was a highly decorated Navy F-18 pilot. While his siblings were undoubtedly among the best in their selected fields of expertise, all of that meant nothing to Alexander because, aside from their direct family members and closest friends, no one even knew who they were.

Although Alex had no idea which of his yet-to-be monumental achievements would be the one to launch him on his road to success, that was of little concern to him because the path was irrelevant, as long as the destination fulfilled his desire: to be famous.

When he sets out in search of his destiny, driving the 1968 Chevy Impala he inherited from his father, he discovers the car has a history all its own, and that there was a reason no one other than his father had ever driven it. As Alex reaches for his goals of fame and fortune, he finds love along the way, but there are those who live to turn his dreams into a nightmare that even a classic muscle car—known as The Black Phantom—cannot outrun.

You dont need to be a petrolhead

He's done it again. Another great story from Riano, the pace of the story, the choice of narrator, make this a great listen. If Chevrolet dont sponsor this book, they are missing out 😁.
As my review title states you dont need to be a petrolhead to enjoy this book (I am certainly not) but if you are, you'll enjoy it even more.

I loved the narration of Rodney Tompkins

After the death of father Alex, he quits his job and drives his father’s prized Impala from Albuquerque to California, hoping to find his destiny. On the journey he meets people who knew his father and tell him about his father’s life as a race car mechanic, known as Fast Bill.
Alex finds relatives and finds out more about his family and its secrets. While doing illegal racing Alex finds love.
You will find elements to the story, that will keep you on the edge of their seats.
