Angels, Ghosts and Harley-Davidsons Heath Johnson

Set primarily in the American southwest, Angels, Ghosts, and Harley-Davidsons is about a man who has lost his wife, his infant son, his job, and his way. Fired Boston radio DJ Jeremiah Blades has been haunted- literally and figuratively -for years by his dead wife Eve, but he's been unable to free himself from his guilt and her ghost until a shady former radio contact named Artie Turnbull shows up at his cabin one morning with a bundle of stolen mob money and a lead as to the whereabouts of Jeremiah's long-lost son Gideon. Jeremiah's in a bind, though. After enduring seventeen years of self-condemnation and exile for not knowing whatever became of Gideon, he finally has the means and a clue to search for his son. Trouble is, it could cost him his life. A convergent road novel with horsepower and love to spare, Angels, Ghosts and Desert Thunder is a novel born of the 60s euphoria and a wake-up call to anyone who's blown it and lost hope. For Jeremiah, it's the open road and a search for a new life in an unforgiving land.
