Well.

That was not at all what I expected, based on the trailers.

I found this to be long, dour, slow, and boring, following (as it does) a quartet of unlikeable photo journalists as they travel cross country across a divided United States (with no real reason given how it got to that state) in a race to Washington DC in an attempt to interview a third term President.

Not for me (or those I went with)

    FROM THE MAKERS OF CSR RACING! Drag-strip legends from the last 60 years come to life in CSR...

Zoe Chase has entered her food truck in a contest across the south east, hoping to win the $50,000 prize to be able to open her diner. Before the first day of the contest, however, a competitor is found dead in his food truck. It looks like a tragic accident until more strange things start happening. What is going on?

It had been about a year and a half since I read the first in this series, but I remembered liking the characters. I was quickly reminded why, and I enjoyed journeying with them to the various stops on the race. The race creates a nice plot, and I found the various tasks and how Zoe and her crew overcame them to be plenty of fun. Sadly, the mystery was a sub-plot at best, and the rush to wrap things up at the end left me less than satisfied with that aspect of the book.
