Gill offers a fresh take on a classic story—the selling of a soul—by adding a Southwestern flair. Eunice "Bug" Smoot finds out the hard way that her beloved 1958 Cadillac Biarritz, her only inheritance from her ne'er-do-well grandfather, comes with an unfortunate accessory—a demon. Narrator Michelle Gomez gives complete authenticity to the feisty heroine, who is tired of being pigeonholed as half African-American, half Tejana. Gomez captures Bug’s fighting spirit amid poverty and homelessness while still managing to tease out traces of her youthful hopefulness. The story also develops a bit of romance when Bug discovers a handsome supernatural immigration officer working at a car wash. D.G. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2010]
