Atomic Sunset: A Route 66 Mystery

By J G Macdonald

WELCOME TO RADIO SPRINGS
Population: oddballs, secrets, and one missing body.

When photographer Jane Dougherty's car breaks down on a forgotten stretch of Route 66, she expects dust, diner coffee, and a little small-town gossip - not a corpse in her trunk. Stranded in Radio Springs, Arizona's quirkiest desert town, Jane turns her lens toward the mystery that's suddenly become very personal.

With help from the town's sharp-tongued librarian, Ramona Galvin, and a few locals who've read more crime novels than they've solved crimes, Jane starts to piece together a trail that winds from the library stacks to the local diner, and all the way out to the old canyon mines. Everyone in Radio Springs has a story - and some of them might just kill to keep it quiet.

The soda fizzes. The desert hums. And after dark, the past has a way of speaking through the static.

A witty, small-town mystery filled with humor, heart, and a dash of desert noir, Atomic Sunset is perfect for readers who love bookish sleuths, eccentric characters, and laugh-out-loud whodunits.
