About this item

Along the scenic back roads of Coastal Georgia and the South Carolina Lowcountry, the live oaks and Spanish moss wave gently on the breeze. But are the dappled shade and lowcountry quiet ready for the ragtag collection of wannabe car race drivers, gearheads and grease monkeys taking a hairpin turn to glory? In this breezy beach read, these not-ready-for-prime-time car jocks have concocted their own motorsports extravaganza. But as the revs build, valuable items begin to disappear. Do the fast fingers belong to the disgraced Formula 1 driver? The bleach blonde? Or maybe the meddling mother-in-law? When the checkered flag finally drops, is it grand prix or grand theft? A fun addition to your summer reading.



About the Author

Gail Hulnick

Gail Hulnick writes fiction and nonfiction. She started out as a novelist with The Lion's Share of the Air Time (2015) , the story of an investigative TV journalist who falls (jumps? ) from an apartment high-rise balcony in Vancouver, Canada. This book was the first of a series of "media mysteries", with the second, A Bird in the Sand (2018) , set in movie-making world, on a film set in Savannah, Georgia, where priceless, historic artifacts have gone missing. She is working on the third, revolving around a radio station, called Sleeping Dogs Lie.During her previous careers as a reporter and then as a media and marketing consultant, Gail traveled and took notes. She's rolled them into two novels in a Hotels Mystery Series, Resorting to Murder (2017) and Resorting to Larceny (2017) . The third, Resorting to Fraud, is scheduled for publication in 2020.In addition to the novels, Gail has written three travel books within her series Rumble Strip. The first, about Canada in its 150th year, is based on a coast-to-coast road trip she took with her husband in 2017. The second book, USA Off the interstate (2019) , is a collection of essays and photographs about trips to 25 of the 50 states over five years, and the third, Rumble Strip Europe Could We Live Here? (2019) is the story of a home-scouting, three-week road trip through France, Italy and Switzerland. (She still lives in the U.S. but continues to ponder other possibilities.) Gail is a lifelong student and has enjoyed quite a few academic environments. She holds a BA in sociology and psychology, an MA in journalism, an MBA with a little bit of everything, and an MFA in creative writing. If she had the time and money (or maybe that should be, when) , she'd go back again and do art history.When she's not writing, she runs a publishing company called WindWord Group Publishing and Media. The company has recently started creating online video courses and is getting ready to do podcasts. She is also working with her husband David Stone on his new venture, I-Fearless.The best things in the world, she thinks, are books, movies, sunsets, sunrises, beaches and dogs.
