“It’s strange to sit here with a glass of wine, watching a storm of locusts mindlessly smear their guts on the living room window. It’s gruesome and mesmerizing. Funny how life goes on despite horrifying signs.”

“Trust me, it will only get weirder.”
We’re all on a journey. We glimpse the road signs, meet our guides, other travelers, make choices along the way as we chart the paths we walk. Sometimes we take a detour which could be as long as a lifetime or as short as a long weekend. The questions is: where is that detour headed?
Audio in Vegas…moving onwards
…a retreat, an escape, a smoke and mirrors destination offering gambling and probability, entertainment and magic, people from everywhere armed with backstories and expectations, or places where a visitor can experience the other side of Sin City like the Valley of Fire, Dragon Ridge, the Mojave desert, the great Hoover Dam, and maybe, just maybe, slip in between the fabric of reality.

Her world in pieces, Imani settles in Caesars Palace Las Vegas, navigating the minefield of probability while bumping into seven strangers headed toward a mind-boggling tragedy and mind-bending experiences. Their guide? The mysterious book JOHN K, discovered in an abandoned Cadillac just up from Chaco Canyon, New Mexico.
