  Jacob Winter is a man of principle, devoted to his wife and son. But his principles are put to the test when he discovers that his wife has been having an affair with another man - with violent results - and he finds himself bailed out of jail by a mysterious woman from his past. For a man who studiously avoids sensationalism, getting caught up with Alix Callahan, fiery lesbian ethnobotanist, and her bisexual partner, a sultry Americanized rainforest girl, is a shock to the system. And when he enters Green Girls, their tropical flower shop on the coast of Maine - complete with hallucinogenic herbs and a mini-jungle full of deadly poison-arrow frogs - Jacob finds himself tumbling headlong into a heady world of strangeness he never could have imagined.

  When struggling writer and borderline schizophrenic Henry Winter catches his wife in bed with his psychiatrist, the resulting fracas could result in him losing his son Max - and what's left of his sanity. And when his lawyer (paid for by a mysterious benefactor) turns out to be Alix Callahan, a firebrand lesbian poetess now living with her exotic bisexual lover July in a tropical florist's called Green Girls, his chances aren't looking too good. Especially when the tantalising July reveals a history of violence and sexual jealousy that landed her Colombian Indian husband in a maximum security jail in Florida. But Pantera is about to be busted out, and Henry is soon going to find himself with a leading role in a conspiracy of sex, drugs and psychosis that could have come straight out of one of his novels...
