Jordan Carpenter has finally achieved the life he's dreamed of since his teens. His self-conscious, seedy years as a trial lawyer have made him wealthy beyond life's pleasures, enough to buy charity accolades and a spot on the Federal bench. He has everything he wants, except the love of his wife, Diane. Eleven years ago she shut him out and turned him into a stranger in his own home, for an offense that wasn't his fault. When rapid-succession calamities devastate the family, Jordan sees the tragedies as an opportunity to resuscitate life with Diane. But he soon wonders if she's intent on preserving the family, or if she's exacting revenge for his past sins. Will his gamble end in the reconciliation he wants or will it tear down his life of accomplishment?

Desperate for money, and against his wife's warnings, former Marine Charlie Woods accepts an unusual five-night limo driving assignment. His wealthy passenger, eighty-year-old Vivien Granville, refuses to fly, but her son's suicide requires she travel from Georgia to the Florida Keys for the funeral. Charlie isn't the only one with a looming crisis. Vivien fears her surviving children have planned more than a burial in Key West.

Their arrangement solves everyone's short-term problem, but as plots hatch back in Georgia, everyone discovers that even minor deceptions can spiral into unimaginable consequences.
From the public television host, a tour of the US’s oldest and greatest dining spots—with “delightful tales, delicious recipes, and hundreds of photographs” (Ted Allen, host of Food Network’s Chopped). Come along on a pilgrimage to some of the oldest, most historic restaurants in America. Each is special not only for its longevity but also for its historic significance, interesting stories, and, of course, wonderful food. The oldest Japanese restaurant in the country is profiled, along with stagecoach stops, elegant eateries, barbecue joints, hamburger shops, cafes, bars and grills, and two dueling restaurants that both claim to have invented the French dip sandwich. The bestselling author and host/producer of Barbecue America shares the charm, history, and appeal that made these establishments, some as many as three hundred years old, successful. Each profile contains a famous recipe, the history of the restaurant, a look at the restaurant today, descriptions of some of its signature dishes, fun facts that make each place unique, and beautiful photos. It’s all you need for an armchair tour of one hundred restaurants that have made America great. “Browne spent three years traveling more than 46,000 miles to profile the 100 restaurants, inns, taverns and public houses he selected as being the most historic, most interesting and most successful.” —Orlando Sentinel “It is Browne’s exploration of the history behind each place that I found most interesting...The White Horse Tavern gave him the Beef Wellington recipe. Peter Luger, the legendary Brooklyn Steakhouse, shared one for German Fried Potatoes and Katz’s Delicatessen in New York City offered Katz’s Noodle Kugel. And, Ferrara in Little Italy in New York City parted with its cannoli recipe.” —Sioux City Journal “Ask any chef: It’s not easy keeping a restaurant alive for a week, let alone a year or a decade. So what does it take to last a century? After five years of criss-crossing the country and gobbling up regional specialties from chowder to chili, Rick Browne reveals the answer to that question.” —Ted Allen, host of Food Network’s Chopped
