A Nickel’s Worth of Road Measles:

Funk’s memorable protagonist, lowly car mechanic Gerry Donahue, has the special gift of seeing past events that a brutal serial killer operating in his area would rather keep hidden. Funk ratchets up the tension as Gerry sets out on a chilling journey to prevent future horrific crimes from happening. In vivid, gorgeous language, she paints Gerry’s inner and outer worlds with a heartfelt passion that makes this riveting cat-and-mouse chase a book you will never forget.
