My imagination is always skulking about in a wrong place. And now Doyle Redmond, thirty-five-year-old nowhere writer, has crossed the line between imagination and real live trouble. On the lam in his soon-to-be-ex-wife's Volvo, he's running a family errand back in his boyhood home of West Table, Missouri. The law wants his big brother, Smoke, on a felony warrant, and Doyle's supposed to talk him into giving up. But Smoke is hunkered down in the hills with his partner, Big Annie, and her beautiful teenage daughter, Niagra, planning to harvest a profitable patch of homegrown marijuana. Finding this an attractive prospect on a few levels, Doyle decides to join his brother's scheme. Big trouble ensues, as the Dolly clan, the Redmond's longtime archrival, wants a piece of the action, too.
