The perfect gift—in any amount—with that personal touch of classic old world charm.
Whiffs of Seattle's Hempfest (mid-August) may still be lingering as L.A. novelist and screenwriter Mark Haskell Smith visits with his newest novel, Baked (Black Cat/Grove). Published in the season that California's Proposition 19—which would legalize marijuana use—this entertaining mystery has ganga growing at its core. Protagonist Miro Basinas is a botanist whose skills result in his winning Amsterdam's Cannabis Cup—which sets in motion a whole array of intrigues and escapades. "A laugh-out loud, thrill-a-minute, tour de force of bad behavior, weirdness, and contemporary illegal commerce. For years, the author's work has been an open secret to connoisseurs of monstro prose and outrageous, transcend-the-genre crime action. With Baked, Mark Haskell Smith may just have written his masterpiece." - Jerry Stahl. "As cockeyed and riotous as Carl Hiaasen on really good dope." - Kirkus Reviews. Moist, Delicious, and Salty are Mark Haskell Smith's three previous books.
