Meanwhile, Becky Paulson, a young filmmaker, is in town to make a documentary about the unsolved disappearance of a high school girl. Getting zero police cooperation and running out of time, she decides instead to make her film about the little studio and the struggling pop musician.
The projects soon descend into turmoil, beset by insanity, religious fanaticism, ancient supernatural forces, and untimely death. In the midst of this madness, all they can do is press “RECORD” and roll tape.

As Andy gradually recovers, he observes it all through his damaged but still brilliant mind.

Damian is a rough-edged loner in 1987, who lives on the margins of West Texas society as a small-time drug dealer and smuggler.

Connie, the wife of a Dallas millionaire, experiences horrible, vivid dreams about a dark force who threatens her and her only daughter.

An affable TV pastor and a hidden church basement may be at the center of it all.

Kerry is 18 in the winter of 1975, and all he wants from life is OUT—out of high school, away from the dusty West Texas town of Duro, and off this desolate high desert plateau called the Caprock. While some of his friends harbor dreams of breaking in to the local music scene, or finding a future with jobs and marriage, others dive into the blissful relief provided by drugs and needles.
Kerry just wants to vanish from this town in a cloud of dust . . . until a breathtakingly beautiful girl arrives from nowhere to knock the wind out of him and send his world tumbling out of control. Suddenly he finds himself in a no-man's land between a sadistic lawman and a brutal drug dealer, faced with nothing but bad choices.
Headfirst Off the Caprock, the first novel in the Duro series, is a story of corruption, betrayal, murder and, most terrifying of all, true love.
