Vera DeSoto runs a cafe in Marfa, Texas in 1968. The cowboys and truckers who come in fantasize and hope for a chance with her, but she enjoys her solitary life and isn’t ready to settle down with anyone. Somehow, Vera seems to collect strays—lost and wayward people looking for second chances. A 14-year-old girl, two hippie boys, and a scared young artist manage to find their way into Vera’s life and suddenly, she’s joining them in a search for buried treasure in the badlands of the rugged desert of Southwest Texas.
They will learn what finding treasure really means.
A classic yarn, full of surprises, with all the right elements: love and loss, hope and despair, drug dealers and cloned cows, and the mysterious Marfa Lights. This book has it all...
