When Ivy League classics professor Bill Kincaid receives news of the murder of his estranged identical twin
brother, Brady, in a pot deal gone bad, he leaves the world of Northeastern academia to travel back to his home
state of Oklahoma. Upon arrival, he finds that reports of his brother's death are greatly exaggerated, and he's
soon caught up in the dangerous and unpredictable world of drug commerce in the backwaters of the Southwest.
In the process, he reconnects with his eccentric mother, meets a wise and educated young woman who has
bypassed academia in favor of the gentler rhythms of life, and unwittingly helps his troubled brother settle a
score with a pernicious drug lord who uses Tulsa, Oklahoma's small Jewish community for cover.
