Gods Without Men

Jaz and Lisa Matharu are plunged into a public hell after their son; Raj; vanishes during a family vacation in the California desert. However; the Mojave is a place of strange power. Before Raj reappears— inexplicably unharmed; but not unchanged—the fate of this young family will intersect with that of many others; both past and present; who have traveled through this odd; remote town in the shadow of a mysterious rock formation known as the Pinnacles. Among them are an 18th-century Spanish missionary; a former WWII aviation engineer turned desert-cult messiah; and an incognito rock star on the run. As their stories collide and build upon one another;Gods Without Men becomes a heartfelt exploration of the search for meaning in a chaotic universe.
