***Saturday, Oct. 19th, 2-4pm***
About the Book:
While running for mayor of San Francisco, a former pot dealer and author of best-selling guides to growing weed is assassinated. Former newspaperman, Ed Rosenberg is hired to find out what happened to a tech billionaire’s birth mother who was a small-time marijuana dealer shot to death in Golden Gate Park in an unsolved 1968 murder. His research about the Haight-Ashbury’s tie-dyed past illuminates that storied era, and introduces him to a rogue’s gallery of aging hippies, who, he realizes, may have been involved in the candidate’s murder. Then someone starts shooting at him…..Killer Weed is a fast-paced, ingeniously plotted novel with characters so real you’ll want to turn on, tune in, and drop everything to reach the surprising, deeply satisfying conclusion.
