Death on the Road
(2024)(The first book in the Wandering Nomads Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Nancy McGovern
Rio Cushing is tired of fighting against the tide. She’s worked hard her whole life. Sacrificed. Struggled.
And for what? Her walking papers.
She’d worked at Lucky Pop’s Trucker Stop since she was a kid. She knew practically every person who walked through the door by name. And Pop and the rest of the staff? Like family.
Just like her family, in fact, because they had just thrown her out, too. But these snakes did it with smiles on their faces, simply because they called it retirement. They even told her she was lucky to have reached the point in life where she could travel, spend time with loved ones and pursue her dreams!
But that was just the problem. She didn���t have any dreams. She had no loved ones — certainly not anymore. And her broken-down Honda wasn’t traveling anywhere farther than the junkyard. She had simply been surviving for as long as she could remember. So now what?
Enter three new acquaintances with somewhat-similar stories to hers. And, after far-too-little consideration and planning, the four of them decide to pack up their lives, pool their measly resources and take to life on the road, traveling as modern-day nomads.
None of them would argue it was the greatest idea ever considered…
