Smuggling, precious love, and outlaw Zen. A tale of the wild and turbulent 1960's -- when and where anything seems possible until shown to be otherwise. Jake Acree leaves the bohemian blues joints of Chicago  and travels cross-country on route 66 in his battered Chevy, towing two English motorcycles. He lands in Los Angeles in the midst of the flamboyant psychedelic revolution and his life radically changes. He launches himself on a free-roaming adventure that takes him deep into the Lsd counter-culture, dealing pure acid and Mexican  weed along the enchanted coast on his fast British bikes. He undergoes a passionate love affair with a Native American girl named Dawn, but his quest for mystical states of consciousness takes him beyond. Jake ventures deep into the Sierra Madre mountains of Oaxaca in search of a fabled mushroom cult and dwells there with the Mazatec Indians. Then, with his partner Bones Osgood, he embarks on a border smuggling operation that is taut with danger and unpredictable characters. His life becomes a race to stay ahead of the ruthless law and flowers into a revelation of self-awareness that puts him on a new and transforming path.
