Big Government versus an elderly, solitary widow in the Mojave Desert. The politicians didn’t stand a chance.

Set against the sun-scorched backdrop of Newberry Springs, California, Mrs. Orcutt’s Driveway tells the true and stirring story of a retired widow, a long-forgotten patch of Route 66, and the power of quiet defiance. With goats, tortoises, and an island in her handmade lake, Bonnie’s life was anything but ordinary—and her resistance made headlines across America.

Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn and Lisa Gardner, this novel will leave you questioning the choices we make – and the prices we pay.

Zahra Starling and her younger half sister, Aurora, have nothing in common. Not their childhoods or their personalities. And certainly not their outlooks. After a terrible loss, Zahra prefers the solitude of her LA kitchen to people, especially family. Bubbly Aurora, a rising Hollywood starlet, has everything she’s ever dreamed of, except a relationship with her sister.

Then comes a plea from their dying father, who wants both daughters by his side. He has a secret to share that’s been a long time coming.

It’s Zahra’s last chance to bring closure to the past, even if traumatic memories mean there’s no way she’s stepping foot on a plane. For Aurora, road-tripping to Seattle is the perfect escape and the chance to win over prickly Zahra.

What starts as a rough ride reopening old wounds evolves into something neither expects. When they finally reach their destination—and the truth that awaits them—the sisters will need each other like never before.
