Winner of the Best Book of the Year awarded by Blues411
Music mogul Daniel Erickson’s life has come to a perilous crossroads. Literally. He has a ruthless pair of killers on his tail and is chasing a million dollars that he owes a Russian mobster.
Standing along the same Mississippi highway where legend claims that bluesman Robert Johnson traded his immortal soul for matchless command of the guitar, Daniel finds himself on a path that parallels the evolution of American music from the Mississippi Delta to New Orleans and on to Memphis, Nashville, Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Philadelphia, the Jersey Shore, New York, and Seattle.
At every stop, Daniel’s tour gets more dangerous with the hit men closing in, an FBI agent obsessed with his capture, and a rogue motorcycle gang hunting him down. Blues Highway Blues, Eyre Price’s debut novel, is a compelling and unique combination: part edge-of-your-seat road trip across America and part examination of the music that comprises its soundtrack.

" Not bad at all. One of the "redeeming power of music" tales with lots of violence and a touch of the supernatural. "
— Jim, 12/7/2013" I really enjoyed the obscure(to me anyhow) music references.. I'll be going on Itunes very soon. "
— Louisa, 12/31/2012" Wow, what a disappointment. If I had bought this book, I'd demand a refund. The sad thing is, it's a good read until the last few chapters. The authur has seen too many Bruce Willis movies. "
