Megan Abbott: El Dorado Drive

Megan Abbott joins Carol Fitzgerald to discuss her latest novel, EL DORADO DRIVE. This is the first book that Megan has written about suburban Detroit, which is where she lived for her early years. The story is set during the time when the automobile market crashed, jobs were suddenly lost, and the lifestyle to which people were accustomed disappeared. Megan talks about those days when the rug was pulled out from under people after years of not worrying about money. She also explains what it was like to write about sisters, even though she only has a brother. And she shares the exciting screenwriting news of what is next for her.
