Three strangers, Iris, Alistair and Spike, are casually ripped from their normal lives to find themselves in a vast desert. Their journey to discover the reason puts them in the path of two unpredictable smiling gods. Guided by intuition, and the words of a possibly-long-dead doctor from 1889, they brave sand, caves, ruby bugs, too much diner food, a medicine show, many baffling visions, and an unexpectedly good performance at a local music hall, all while wondering if the cheerful hints offered by the enigmatic Twin Gods are as helpful as they seem. Instantly engrossing and wonderfully re-readable, this is a subtle, enchanting tale of fate (like or not), of true soul-love that transcends time and space, and the healing power of French fries. "A combination of Stephen King and Roald Dahl." - Jim Kilpatrick, author of "Little Bat Koku"
