Men without women, men without a clue, men loaded to the eyeballs on hallucinogenics.... Three St Andrews University graduates, Victor Emerson, a young Tory monster, Philip Quinn, the psychopathic Trotskyite and Edwards, the original unreliable narrator have only one thing in common; their need to ingest large quantities of magic mushrooms as often as possible.

A crazy, deluded, sociopathic plan, ridiculous, nasty... but a plan nevertheless, that just might make them all rich. A parable of our times...If Hunter S Thompson, Thomas De Quincy and Flann O'Brien could have got together to write a crackpot heist comedy, this would be it...
