歡迎來到亞利桑那州的「無處鎮」，全美國最不適合居住的小鎮。對聰明絕頂的13歲少年格斯來說，他夢想著離開這裡去上大學，但鎮上最惡劣的惡霸波·泰勒讓他的生活雪上加霜。當波試圖強迫格斯吞下一顆危險的仙人掌時，鎮上最厲害的賽車手之一蘿西·史考特出手相救——但代價是她必須把自己心愛的越野車交給波。為了把車買回來，格斯決定前往「死法國佬礦坑」尋找黃金，同行者包括一位老朋友、波的一個跟班，以及蘿西本人。在他們爭分奪秒地趕在鎮上最重要的自行車賽前找到寶藏時，彼此分享著在無處鎮生活的艱辛故事——他們也意識到，這場冒險或許正是他們的出路。作者達斯蒂·鮑林（《仙人掌生命中微不足道的事件》）重返沙漠，創作出這個關於友誼、希望與發掘內心力量的精采故事。
The signed bookplate was tucked in securely, a nice touch for a collector like me. Gus’s story pulled me in right away, and the way the desert town feels almost like another character made the whole read stick with me.
I tore through this in one sitting—Gus’s voice is so real and the desert setting pulls you right in, even if Nowhere sounds like the last place you’d want to be. The signed bookplate was tucked in clean and makes it feel like a keeper for my shelf.
Gus feels like a real kid, not a plot device, and the way his struggle to escape Nowhere unfolds kept me turning pages past midnight. The signed bookplate was a nice touch, but honestly the story itself is what makes this worth owning.
