"Smart and funny as hell!" --Jeanne Howard

"Features the best description of being stoned in English prose. I felt like I was high, and I haven't touched the stuff for years. Bravo!" --William H. Burman

When the man who cost him his job offers Jack Teagarden a beachside house-sitting assignment, he latches on to it like a man overboard. For a child of Silicon Valley, the counterculture freakiness of Santa Cruz is hard to deal with, until Jack's life coach takes him to an all-night drumming party. Under the spell of a thunderous stream of percussion, a pigeon-raising witch named Audrey LaBrea and a tragically unmarked plate of brownies, Jack wakes up with grass stains all over his body and rumors that he initiated a naked light-saber battle. So what's harder, fighting the freaks? Or realizing that you are one?
