Lost Souls of Sunset

One light against the dark.

On the night the whole city goes black, a single neon sign refuses to go out. That’s where the story begins.

Adam Dalton lives in a vintage camper at the quiet end of Sunset Boulevard. By day he builds a comedy club with a hammer and a box of nails; by night he chases the only thing he ever wanted out of this town — to step into the light and make a room full of strangers laugh.

But Adam carries his own darkness, and a faith he refuses to let go of: that the world is still good underneath it all. So when the people Hollywood throws away cross his path — a girl just off the bus, a friend coming apart, a room full of comics told to sand the truth out of their act — he can’t bring himself to walk past.

Lost Souls of Sunset is a story about laughter and mercy sharing the same room. About holding on to the part of you that still believes, long after the world has done its best to slap it out of you. About grace showing up in the last place you’d think to look.

It’s a book for anyone who has ever rebuilt a life from the wreckage — and kept walking, in the dark, toward the light.

As I walk with the lost souls of sunset.” C. A. Valley · Waterchase Publishing
