Slott Canyon, the new novel from award-winning author Dan Baldwin, traces the lives of a handful of people trying to survive in a new land. Their stories meet, diverge, then come together again, entwining their lives and the reader in an epic tale of love, hate, loss and revenge. As with his Caldera Trilogy, Dan makes the panorama of the Southwest a character of his story. It is the landscape’s unseen hand that shapes the lives of every person willing to face the maelstrom head on. Dan’s prose is stark and beautiful at the same time. The reader can feel the dirt and grit that each player experiences in his tale.
