This was a completely random grab from a Post Shop / Bookstore on our way to Abel Tasman. I knew I was going to finish the book that I was taking in and wanted to be sure that I had another for our long and dark evenings in the huts. With about 20 seconds to scan the counter, I picked up what I thought was a fictional story about about drug smuggling in Thailand. What it turned out to be was a true account of one of the largest smugglers of marijuana into California in the late 1980’s. Although it did turn out to be “highly” entertaining, I doubt I would have even noticed it in any other circumstances. Amazon doesn’t even have it listed. Yet, it did have a great account of some of the places that we will be visiting in the month’s ahead.
