Not into chick-lit? Tired of the usual boilerplate spy novels? THE BOXCAR BLUES is a hard hitting, coming of age story about two teenage boys, one white and one black, and their fight for survival during the Great Depression. Luke and Curly fight a phony murder charge, suffer lost love and overcome hatred on their grueling road to success. Their tempered steel toughness and street savvy allow them to rise from vagrants, to become owners of a prosperous airline. THE BOXCAR BLUES is available at selected book stores and major on-line book sellers.
