Glover, Texas has three restaurants, two gas stations, and its very own underground crime syndicate. Other than that, the town’s about as lively as roadkill. That’s been Cake Donaldson’s experience, anyway. Cake flips burgers at the local diner on Route 66 for the same mouths day in, day out. Life is simple. Too simple. So, when an attractive older woman shows up with a spontaneous proposition—a sex-filled road trip full of adventure—he bites the hook. Unfortunately for him, she leaves out some details, like what’s in the trunk of her car, and just how bad her husband wants it. A cat and mouse crime thriller that meets True Romance with The Graduate.
