For Tom Dawson and Sam Wilson, life in the northwestern Colorado
town of Cottonwood Springs proceeds without any profound awareness
or deep concern for a final objective, and certainly with no sense
that their personal journeys are destined to deliver them to a
strange-sounding town in Mexico known as the City of the Dead. Best
friends who served together in Vietnam, the recently widowed Tom
and divorced Sam now inhabit each other's life in a ritual of
familiar habits and shared history. Tom, a writer since his days as
a combat correspondent, tends to nod and observe, while Sam, a
Nighthawk who flew in Huey gunships, continues to be in the thick
of things, carrying on about conspiracies, dropping culture
references, and offering his interpretation of quantum mechanics
and karma. When Sam finds himself in a contentious property
transaction, both men wind up with their lives turned on end, with
each in his own way searching for answers and possible solutions
that will provide some sense of closure and certainty. These goals,
however, may prove only more elusive late in life and Tom and Sam
are in store for adventures they never could have anticipated.
