Product Description
by Ed McGinnis (Author)
Pennsylvania, 1979. The costliest, most controversial highway project in state history becomes a magnet for protests, litigation, political corruption, bribery, blackmail...and murder. The lives, and deaths, of a strange cast of fellow travelers intersect in and around the troubled, but enormously lucrative, Interstate 476. Sometimes fate, God, the Devil, karma or some perverse combination thereof conspires to bring together a unique, volatile assembly of conflicted individuals and conflicting agendas at a moment in time, and all hell breaks loose. The Blue Route details one such season in hell.
Author Biography
Ed McGinnis is the author of the novels The Blue Route and Wildwood. He grew up in the shadow of the Blue Route, on the deceptively mean streets of suburban Philadelphia, where he encountered the sort of real-life characters that inhabit his fiction: shady politicians, pragmatic cops, outlaw bikers, drug dealers, gamblers, mob figures, murder victims and killers. He has spent many summers working and vacationing at the Jersey shore, primarily in The Wildwoods. He has worked as an ad agency copywriter, technical writer and editor, in market research and in various capacities in the hospital and health care industry. Ed lives in Delaware County, Pennsylvania.
