Description
A former rodeo cowboy turned antiques scout, Cadillac Jack McGriff crisscrosses the country in his gleaming car, buying treasures at garage sales, flea markets, and auctions before selling them to wealthy collectors. When a commission takes him to Washington, D.C., Jack is drawn into the city’s glittering political and social circles, where eccentric clients, complicated ex-wives, and two very different romantic prospects unsettle his carefully independent life. His search for rare cowboy memorabilia becomes an unconventional journey through desire, reinvention, and the difficulty of committing to one place—or one person. Blending road-story adventure, earthy humor, and lively character comedy, the novel showcases a freewheeling style rooted in the mythology and contradictions of the American West.
