"A sprawling story about a Mormon homesteading family in Southern California"-- Provided by publisher.
For the past twenty years, Bronson Powers, former Hollywood stuntman and converted Mormon, has been homesteading deep in the uninhabited desert outside Joshua Tree with his three wives and ten children. Bronson and his wives, Yalulah, Mary, and Jackie, have been raising their family away from the corruption and evil of the modern world. Their insular existence—controversial, difficult, but Edenic—is upended when the ambitious young developer Maya Abbadessa stumbles upon their land. Hoping to make a profit, she crafts a wager with the family that sets in motion a deadly chain of events.

Unique voice submitted by mckeetho on June 28, 2023, 10:27am I've always enjoyed David Duchovny as an actor; he seems to inhabit his roles well. His unique voice comes through in his writing, too. The characters are well developed, but it's really about the story and Duchovny's voice. It's a pretty quick read, and I think it's the most cohesive of his novels so far.
