Just as she did in her New York Times Notable debut novel, The Metal
Shredders, Nancy Zafris follows a colorful cast of characters into
uncharted fictional territory, this time landing in the canyon
country of the desert Southwest in 1954. For motivations as
straightforward as striking it rich to reasons far more complex and
confounding, they each embark on very personal divergent journeys
across an unforgiving countryside, even while their quest to find
uranium unites them. By turns meditative and funny, frightening,
witty and refreshingly wise, Lucky Strike explores the ways that
lanuguage simply put can mine the inexpressible. In the process, a
young widow and her two children learn much about uranium but even
more about the nature of the love that binds them. This is a story to
touch your heart.
