Osmo

Exile from California - this is the verdict for Mary Lynn Osmo, a once moderately successful platinum-blonde actress. She has committed a perfect murder, so perfect that she must accuse herself of it. The exile, imposed by Governor Green and the paternal judge, leads Mary Lynn deeper into the parched golden land of the sun and to the frontier of her own story. An insolvent solar plant run by a cultish German, seven homeless veterans, the prison motel Court Inn, a little girl obsessed with shrunken heads, the prison cook who becomes the marshal and the object of desire, a consultant for Indian affairs, a diner in the Mojave Desert, and families returning home on lifeboats at the beach in Los Angeles are her companions on this journey.
