    About this ebook

    Jim Haskins has been selling cars for over a decade. He knows the business, is good at it, and never turns down the opportunity to make a sale. So when the older gentleman shows up on the lot during the most brutal day of the summer heat, Jim knows he’s a buyer. Never mind that he forgot to bring his driver’s license; never mind that he’s wearing a jacket in ninety-degree weather. All Jim Haskins knows is that he’s going to take this guy on a demo drive and sell him a car. But what he doesn’t know is that this drive is going to be the worst, and quite possibly last, of his life...
