Detour to Disaster Barbara King Smythe

Dressed in the Urban Bus Lines uniform, Harry Wardell walked out the door of his house to find a dead bird on the sidewalk. "Is this an omen of some sort?" Officially retired, but covering for a friend's Atlantic City casino run today, it's too late to find a replacement. The routine trip of hauling day gamblers ninety miles for low-stakes gambling turns into a high-stakes fight for survival in the New Jersey Pine Barrens against criminals, forces of nature and non-so-natural enemies. Detour to Disaster is a thrilling tale of ordinary people put into an extraordinary situation and their determination to come out alive.
