A haunting phone call lures Carlton Richards to eastern Colorado, where he finds a body and launches a search for answers. Strange goings on immediately confound the simple mystery of identifying the dead woman and determining their connection. During the investigation, both lives are exposed through dreams and flashbacks. Carlton is crude, hard-driven and lascivious, but while unweaving the mystery, his personality seems to change. What's happening? Is Carlton simply experiencing then resolving a mid-life crisis? Can Victoria Goodsen's initially confusing, daringly sexual, and then mystical story be true, or is something sinister afoot? Moreover, what molds human character, genes, nurture or perhaps something spiritual? There are enigmatic clues throughout, some more difficult to decipher, but you have the final say in deciding Victoria's real story and understanding Carlton. But will friends agree with your conclusions, or perhaps point to contrary clues and demand a debate on the source of man's, Carlton's and Victoria's character?
