Howard Walker is fleeing from a dark secret.

As 62-year-old Walker drives a coach bus across America, he recounts his experiences of war trauma and his bond with the famous protest singer Philip Boothman back in New York City. Boothman pulled Walker out of the gutter, and in return, Walker has been handling shady business for the renowned songwriter. As Walker’s story unfolds, the truth about Boothman's ill-fated romantic affair with a Danish girl comes to light…

"The Road to Alberta" is a sombre, contemporary portrayal of America, reminiscent of "The Great Gatsby." The novel beautifully explores the intricate dynamics of striving for a dream while navigating the complexities of unreciprocated love. A narrative of betrayal, friendship, commitment, art, and disillusionment.

“A well-composed novel riddled with unfulfilled dreams, broken hearts, and human fate … When Brian Dan Christensen leads you around New York City, you feel just as safe as when Ellroy gives you a guided tour of L.A. or Elmore shows you Detroit.” Litteratursiden
