FAST CARS, TALL CASH, A TICKING CLOCK and one of the most compelling women in contemporary fiction. The author of ZigZag??one of the boldest and most original first novels to appear in a long time? (Carl Hiaasen)?is back with a dizzying thrill ride that reintroduces a character from that acclaimed debut. It?s a man?s, man?s, man?s world, and Jenna Jet is a twenty-something femme fatale on the run?literally. Trying to out pace the lingering effects of her troubled past, and desperate for cash, Jenna heads west to play a dangerous game: driving stolen, high-end imports across the nighttime desert from Phoenix to Los Angeles. She's made the run a harrowing nine times, and the big payout?a cool hundred large?is on ice until she delivers car number ten. One last ride before she's out of the game for good. But nothing is ever that simple. And everything is about to go wrong, fast. Along the way Jenna must negotiate highway patrol, police choppers, border checkpoints, and a nasty cop who's more interested in her than in the six-figure coupe she's driving. But the biggest roadblock of all? A family secret that might just slam the brakes on everything. Strap in for this exhilarating road novel and experience a high-octane burst of riveting prose David S. Goyer calls ?gritty, jagged and full of passion.?
