Several stories woven together surrounding an area in the desert that may or may not call to aliens. An addict rock star, a struggling couple whose son is nuerodivergent (and then gets abducted!), and an alien cult (some members we follow throughout decades). Very different. If you don’t like stories that don’t give you all the answers, you probably won’t like this. What actually happened? We’ll never know. And isn’t that kind of life?
