A Crime Reads Pick of 17 Best Stoner Mysteries

Part-time environmentalist and philanthropist Ben and his ex-mercenary buddy Chon run an independent Laguna Beach–based marijuana operation, reaping significant profits from an established clientele. But they may have come up against something that they can't handle—the Mexican Baja Cartel wants in, and saying no is unacceptable. When they refuse to back down, the cartel kidnaps Ophelia, the boys' playmate and confidante. O's abduction sets off a dizzying array of ingenious negotiations and gripping plot twists that will captivate listeners eager to learn the costs of freedom and the price of an amazing high.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Narrator Michael Kramer’s performance is perfect for the story, which delivers a gritty portrait of the border drug trade of Laguna, California. His narration engages listeners in the nonstop action and depicts credible characters on all sides of the drug wars. Savages is an audio experience that lives up to its name. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.” AudioFile
“A revelation…Every bit as savage as its title…This is Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid on autoload.” Stephen King, #1 New York Times bestselling author
“Winslow’s marvelous, adrenaline-juiced roller coaster of a novel…is both a departure and a culmination, pyrotechnic braggadocio and deep meditation on contemporary American culture.” Los Angeles Times
Savages is full of wild-card moves.... Its wisecracks are so sharp, its characters so mega-cool and its storytelling so ferocious...thanks especially to Mr. Winslow's no-prisoners sense of humor. Janet Maslin, The New York Times
