Title: Paradise Salvage
Description: "Each new wreck towed into Paradise Salvage - where the ferocious crusher presides with its power to reduce luxury automobiles into coffin-shaped heaps of twisted metal -is a desultory gift from Fortune, a random opportunity for discovery.

Sometimes it's a handful of loose change under the upholstery or an old copy of Vue magazine with a Bettie Page centerfold under the front seat, but on a hot summer day in 1979, in the trunk of an abandoned Pontiac Bonneville, Nunzio uncovers a secret that will change his life.".

"In the blink of an eye, all evidence is lost to the crusher, and only his older brother Danny Boy believes Nunzio's story. Enlisting the help of his father's renegade cousin, an ex-cop with a dark history of his own, they embark on a bizarre and dangerous journey that proves to be as much one of personal discovery as an unraveling of the mystery behind the corpse at Paradise Salvage."--BOOK JACKET.
