Foxfire Light (1982)
“By the time she had claimed her baggage, signed all the papers to rent a car, and found where it was parked, she was almost sorry she had insisted it wasn’t necessary for her uncle to pick her up at the airport.
It had sounded so simple and sensible when she’d told him her plans over the phone, especially when she’d looked at a Missouri map and seen it was roughly forty-five miles from the airport to her uncle’s cabin. In Los Angeles, that was just across town.
After more than two hours in airp...orts, waiting to leave and changing planes, plus another three hours in the air, she wasn’t overjoyed by the thought her final destination was still an hour’s drive away. She didn’t take it too well when she discovered the little economy car she had rented didn’t have air-conditioning.
