Beginning in the savage wilds of Colorado in the waning days of the fur trade, the story follows Zebulon Shook, a mountain man who has a curse placed on him by a mysterious Native American woman whose lover he murdered, to 'drift like a blind man between the worlds, not knowing if you're dead or alive, or if the unseen world exists, or if you're dreaming.'
