And when Landon steals one of Ray's cigarette-filled trucks one sunny day, all hell breaks loose. Landon finds himself navigating an increasingly dangerous cat-and-mouse game while, along the way, friends and foes share their unexpected insights into what Buddhists call the luminous path of innate wisdom. As the long Cali days tick by, the question arises: which final path will Landon ultimately travel?
