Arthur needs a fresh start after what happened back home, and finds it in the Emerald Triangle, a land of ancient forests and coastal cliffs where much of the United States' marijuana is grown. As he settles in he befriends troubled Dusk, solitary Sylvia and undecided Tamara, and is drawn into a history reaching back to the hippies of the 1960s, in which invented lives are woven together with those of real campaigners for legal cannabis.
