A novel to love and recommend....'A faultlessly engineered escape machine that can transport willing passengers to an enchanting world... All you have to do is believe in an eleven-year-old grafter and her presumptive father, who rattle around the Southland in the year 1935, bilking widows, Alabama peanut farmers and even used-car dealers out of hard Depression currency.
