The high-octane, behind-the-scenes saga of the titans and assembly-line workers who built the American dream—and the scandals that threatened to tear it down. Arthur Hailey, the master of the "insider" novel, takes you into the ruthless, high-stakes world of the Detroit auto industry at its peak. Wheels pulls back the curtain on the birth of a new motor car, exposing the relentless pressure, the corporate espionage, and the complex human lives intertwined with the machinery of "Motor City." The narrative follows Adam Trenton, an ambitious automotive executive whose obsession with designing the car of the future threatens his marriage to his neglected wife, Erica. From the grueling heat of the production lines to the opulent boardrooms of the industry giants, Hailey weaves a story of power struggles, racial tensions, and the drive for success in a world that never stops moving. In an industry where a single mechanical flaw can cost millions and a single moment of passion can destroy a career, can Adam stay in the driver's seat, or will the very world he helped create run him off the road?
