Forty-One's Journey is a heartwarming novel about a woman, named Donna "Fiery" Maze, her husband Alex, their dog Tiger, and a 1941 Chevrolet Special Deluxe automobile. Before Alex goes off to war in 1944, Fiery promises to never sell his car. Sadly, Alex was a casualty of the war. But for more than five decades, Fiery kept her promise and the car she called Forty-One, always dreaming one day her husband would return for her and his car.
Don and Ann are a young professional couple who purchased the car after unforeseen circumstances forced it to be sold. Because of items left in the trunk from the 1940s, Don's obsession turns to finding the car's original owner, which leads him to Fiery. During a series of meetings, Fiery shares many of her life's stories, and the dream she has of her husband returning. All meetings stop when the elderly Fiery goes missing, as does the car named Forty-One. But... can they be found?
