Fourth book in author/racer BS Levy’s cult-classic The Last Open Road series, it follows the development of narrator Buddy Palumbo’s family, romantic, and business adventures plus the parallel story of his rich, charming, spoiled, devil-may-care but totally self-centered race-driver friend Cal Carrington’s adventures as he climbs the dangerous ladder to a spot on the Ferrari formula one team and enjoys/is confused and tormented by an on-again/off-again relationship with beautiful young Hollywood starlet Gina LaScala, who was introduced in book two of the series. Once again, all the history, both motoring and otherwise, is presented very much as it happened.
