Angels Dance and Angels Die is a tragic melodrama involving one of rock's greatest legends; sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll meet Romeo and Juliet.
The book examines one of the most turbulent aspects of legendary Doors frontman Jim Morrison's life, his relationship with Pamela Coursin.
A self-proclaimed creation of Jim Morrison, Courson was a complex and compelling woman who lived several roles in her relationship with the Doors lead singer: groupie, muse, and wife, to name a few.
Angels Dance examines the lives of Courson and Morrison before their fateful meeting in 1965; it chronicles their lives together until Morrison's death in 1971; and it describes Courson's life without Morrison, including her fight to gain the rights to his estate until her death from a heroin overdose on April 25, 1974.
