When a friend-a psychiatrist-offers to loan you their beach house, you take it. Even when there's a condition to the agreement. That's how Alexa Nunes found herself ensconced in a beach house with explicit instructions to read the autobiography of Taylor Bragg, the rock star turned serial killer who murdered her fiancé. Beyond the sand and sun, Alexa hopes reading the book in the serene setting will help her move on with her life, particularly now that the killer is locked away in a psychiatric hospital for the criminally insane. But instead of closure, she finds something else, something that compels her to get in touch with the very person who caused all her misery-Taylor Bragg himself. And to help him escape. Meanwhile, after learning about Taylor Bragg's escape, Brian Wilson, a longtime fan of Bragg's music and a man with a proclivity for self-mutilation, quits his job and embarks on a pilgrimage to find the fugitive and help him record one last album. Weaving together excerpts from Alexa Nunes's diary, Taylor Bragg's autobiography, and Brian Wilson's blog posts, Dark Stars Align tells an epic tale of passion, forgiveness, and the lengths to which people will go to find meaning.
