Set against the backdrop of the unchanging California desert, Blue McCarron's life takes a dramatic turn following her breakup with partner Roxie. Returning home, she confronts the stark realities of her surroundings and the emotional void left by the end of her relationship. The story explores themes of loss, self-discovery, and the search for belonging in a landscape that mirrors her internal struggles.

Blue McCarron is a gay social psychologist who lives in an abandoned motel in the desert outside San Diego. She has teamed up with Roxie Bouchie, an African American (and country line-dancing) prison staff psychiatrist--and their newest case is a baffling one.
