A psychologically intense spiritual novel set in Varanasi, India, where the search for a missing guru becomes a pilgrimage through betrayal, death, desire, and grace.
Micah Connerly grew up in a California commune steeped in mantras, mysticism...and lies.
After a drunken confession exposes a family secret, thirty-two-year-old Micah sells everything but his Harley and travels to India to find Raj, the guru stepfather who abandoned him as a child and took the truth with him.
When a chance accident binds Micah to a dying stranger, his search pulls him into a Varanasi hospice, where three other foreign volunteers are also hiding from their pasts. As Micah follows clues through ashrams, backstreets, burning ghats, and the shadowed world of spiritual devotion, every answer peels back another illusion.
Soon he is caught between the man he was, the truth he fears, and a love he never saw coming.
But when the promise of answers comes with a threat against the volunteers' lives, Micah must decide whether the truth he came for is worth the futures it could destroy-including his own.
Lush, tense, irreverent, and transformative, God in Drag is literary spiritual fiction for readers who love emotionally intense stories of identity, pilgrimage, betrayal, and hard-won grace.
