A sultry, dangerous longing
Buddy lives alone in a small row house in Glen Ullin, North Dakota. By day he operates his excavator through the endless shale fields; by night he loses himself in dreams of Salma Hayek—the woman he can never have. Until one evening, an old Yanktonai shaman appears at Doc’s Saloon and makes him a seductive promise: there is a way to make his longing come true.
An unremarkable root. An ancient chant. And one warning: “Never look her in the eyes.”
What begins as a lonely ritual turns into obsession. Night after night, dream and reality blur, until Buddy finds in the arms of his imagination what no man survives—the price of fulfillment.
A modern noir about loneliness, desire, and the dangerous power of imagination—dark, erotic, and relentless as a thunderstorm rolling over the prairie. Recently re-written.
