Before you guess on what you think the lesson of this book is... guess again.
Devan Ross and Rachel Winters are anything but average teenagers. Having met in the late 1980's while attending the same junior high school in Jacksonville, Florida, they became close friends and successful entrepreneurs by building one of the largest marijuana distribution networks spreading throughout Jacksonville's many high schools.
After various early life-altering encounters with the "darker" side of life, they lose their innocence and find themselves not only existing in this darker world but thriving in it as well.
Upon graduating high school, Devan and Rachel embark on different paths of self-discovery. After 8 years of struggling and trying to make it in the "real world" they return to doing what they do best, growing and selling marijuana. But this time on a much grander scale.
Follow them over a twenty-year period as they rise to the top of the local marijuana underworld while toppling many of Jacksonville's corrupt social elite along the way.
