The Illinois Caper

Mehr zum Buch

Middle-aged and mostly respectable, Kat Merevec and Tish O'Donnell are the least likely women in Evanston, Illinois, to become safecrackers-until the night Tish's husband dumps them both. Now, drawn together by an unlikely bit of chance and a dash of revenge, Kat and Tish are on the lam, taking an equally unlikely escape route-the Mother Road: Route 66.With the trunk of their classic 1957 Buick convertible stuffed with more than a million bucks in cash, diamonds, and unfulfilled dreams, they're racing from Chicago to the Pacific along a fabled highway potholed with switchbacks, setbacks, and detours. But to reach their California paradise, they have to stay one step ahead of Tish's ex, a private eye with his own agenda, and the murderous fence who wants them dead!
