Disgruntled, disheveled, fish-out-of-water mobile librarian
Israel Armstrong is finally going home to London, rattling along
with his irascible companion Ted Carson in their rust bucket book
van en route to the Mobile Meet. The annual library convention
gives Israel the opportunity to catch up with his family, eat
paprika chicken and baklava, and drink good coffee. But they've
barely found parking when the unimaginable occurs: their
library-on-wheels is stolen!
Who on earth would want to take a thirty-year-old traveling
disaster with the words "The Book Stops Here" painted across the
back? Israel and Ted are determined to find out. But their search
is leading them on a very twisty trail through the countryside in
pursuit of a suspicious convoy of New Age travelers. And the hunt
is raising numerous troubling questions--such as where exactly is
Israel's high-flying girlfriend, Gloria? And is Ted really making a
move on Israel's widowed mother?
