"In Berkson's hands, the hunt becomes an attempt to realign his life and even reconnect with his dead father, making this an improbably meaningful account."--Publishers WeeklyIt was a car fanatic's nightmare. While Terry Berkson was visiting his newborn at the hospital, his '63 Corvette was stolen. He posted reward notices and cruised neighborhoods where he thought a stolen Corvette might pop up.Berkson was aided in his search by understanding officials and sympathetic car thieves, as well as repo men. He lurked in the corners of New York's most secluded hiding places, like "King Kong's Cave" in the Bronx, where stolen cars are set on fire. He learned how professional thieves plan and pull off grand theft auto, and he finally located his car. What happens when he does is both terrifying and exhilarating.
