Showing results for "Cars" in Thriller & Suspense

It's 1959. Sixteen-year-old Alex Housman has just stolen his 14th car and frankly doesn't know why. His divorced, working-class father grinds out the night shift at the local Chevy plant in Detroit and looks forward to the flask in his glove compartment and the open bottles of booze in his Flint, Michigan, home. Broke and fighting to survive, Alex and his father face the realities of estrangement, incarceration, and even violence as their lives unfold toward the climactic episode that a New York Times reviewer called "one of the most profoundly powerful in American fiction."

Det. Lt. Michael "Mike" McBride, Jr., is the most handsome, brave, intelligent, strong, and single cop ever. Not only that, he owns a nice house in the suburbs. Enter the lady in distress - a beautiful, sophisticated and attractive redhead having trouble with an ex-boyfriend who has violent criminal tendencies. Mix in a murder, attempted murder, arson fire, explosion, drug bust, suspicious accident, a bank robber, stalker, and a mysterious drug lord. Mike certainly has his hands full. Needless to say, the only one who gets the best of him is the redhead.
