Chon and Ben are strange bedfellows. Chon is a former special forces killing machine who hates everything and everyone (except Ben and O). Ben is a do-gooding Buddhist...and a brilliant botanist who has developed The Best Weed Ever. The two run their SoCal pot empire with much love from their best friend/girlfriend, O.
Things go to shit when the Baja Cartel moves in on them.
Fast, flip, violent, nihilistic (the only "ism" Chon approves of), a barbed love letter to Orange County, mind-bending/-blowing: not everyone's cup of tea. Normally the stream-of-consciousness shit would turn me off, but this was so real it worked.
