Set against the vibrant tapestry of California's 80s culture, this treasure hunt unfolds during the summer of 1981, hosted by a struggling AM radio station. Based on the real "Summer of $50,000" contest and capturing the spirit of radio contests that defined the era, this novel is more than just a story; it's a time capsule of the 80s, intricately woven onto the pages.

As the characters grapple with their individual struggle, themes of hope and desperation, dreams, and the struggles of working-class lives unfold, creating a story that anyone can relate to regardless of background or age. I believe the New York literary community will be interested in this story and enjoy being transported to the sunny southern California of the early 80's.
