Marilee journeys from Los Angeles to New Mexico to surprise her fiancé, Larry, who has taken a job on the Alamogordo Air Force Base to gain, in one of his antithetical Zen experiments, an understanding of peace. Sympathy for Enoch, a hitchhiking dwarf, disrupts her orderly plans. In a separate voyage, Figman, an insurance claims adjuster on the run, relocates to New Mexico after surviving a lethal car crash that results in an unfair lawsuit against him. Now prone to migraines and the conviction that he is dying, Figman embarks on new adventures. Late in the novel, these two distinct love stories converge on a highway in near collision.

In a state widely considered ground zero for civil rights struggles, Huntsville became an unlikely venue for racial reconciliation. Huntsville's recently formed NASA station drew new residents from throughout the country, and across the world, to the Rocket City. This influx of fresh perspectives informed the city's youth. Soon, dozens of vibrant rock bands and soul groups, characteristic of the era but unique in Alabama, were formed. Set against the bitter backdrop of segregation, Huntsville musicians--black and white--found common ground in rock and soul music. Whether playing to desegregated audiences, in desegregated bands or both, Huntsville musicians were boldly moving forward, ushering in a new era. Through interviews with these musicians, local author Jane DeNeefe recounts this unique and important chapter in Huntsville's history.

Meet the Rocket City Rednecks. They're five "backwoods" guys from the rocket city: Huntsville, Alabama, home to NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center and the birthplace of the U.S. space program. Sure, they love to shoot stuff and drink beer, and one of 'em lives in a trailer, but with a family tree full of NASA rocket scientists (not to mention their own PhDs and advanced degrees), they aim a little higher¾like using homemade moonshine to fuel a rocket! Now, in typical laidback style, Dr. Travis S. Taylor, leader of the crew, delivers the goods on how America can return to space exploration and manned space flight. What's needed is a good old "try anything" attitude, a bit of gumption, and the spectacularly entertaining backyard science that's the Rocket City Redneck specialty.

Based on an Urban Legend. Rocket City, Alabama 1963. Arik Ensminger, a second-generation German, grew up in the southern town eating Zwischenmahlzeit, Kaffee, and Kuchen while playing cowboys and Indians in the woods of Monte Sano. An avid spelunker, Arik dreams of becoming a photographer but instead follows his family's expectations and prepares for a medical career. He is a dutiful son until... He defies his father to join in a search for a missing child. Arik partners with Willa, a childhood friend, and scientific Wunderkind, to explore the caverns under the mysterious mountain. Caught in a disorienting slip where the passage of time becomes fluid and spontaneous, they lose their way. But an unlikely guide, the Little Ghost Girl, leads them to Ensminger family secrets that were never meant to be discovered, then onto Drost Park, where Arik and Willa find the body of the murdered child. Arik has one shot to end his family's ruthless legacy but, if he's not careful, he will become their final test subject, and Willa will die. Dead Children's Playground is based on Huntsville, Alabama's eerie urban legend of child abductions in the early sixties, where children's bodies were allegedly found in the Park. When time is spent, Eternity begins... Some believe paranormal evidence that the spirits of the children remain.
