Becoming increasingly disillusioned with city life, Collin Forsett and his friends embark on a backcountry snowboarding trip where they rekindle a friendship with an outcast ski-god and self-declared "shaman," Connor, whose dubious grasp on reality threatens them all. Then again, considering those alarming visions Collin's been experiencing, Connor might be on to something. An insider's peek into the grand bacchanal that is a Colorado ski town at the height of the season, The Set Sun Blood at Dusk, is both an earth-bound travelogue and a mystically probing novel about friendship and the nature of human grace.
