Résumé

A small used car dealer tries to make ends meet from his dealership in tiny Truro, Massachusetts, population 2000. Truro is a beautiful beach community of sand dunes and ocean views. Cape Car Blues is the story of how 6-year old Mikey Mayflower acts out with his pranks then eventually worms his way into the hearts of the used car staff, finding love and acceptance as they fill the role of "extra parents" for him. The owner, Sam Oscar Shallow, is always trying to think up new schemes to make a profit, many of them ill-conceived and in bad taste.
A bureaucratic pair of fish cops show up routinely with their overly officious antics and pester the locals with excessive regulation reminders. An unusual test drive of an orange El Camino bedevils the dealership. A few New England Patriots players stop in and buy classic cars. One woman trades in her horse for a car. A few hapless criminals are in a hurry to buy the six cars they failed to purchase at the car auction. Read Cape Car Blues and immerse yourself into a nostalgic 1975 summer when hope and laughter was in great supply.
