Thirty years ago he tuned in, turned on, and dropped out into a life without deadlines or documentation. But now the aging flower child known as Paladin is learning what stress is all about. High-tech thugs would happily kill him for a package he didn't deliver, the Portland cops like him for the murder of a renegade attorney, and the attorney's sexy secretary wants to
jump his bones-or bury them. He's on the run, trying to solve the crime and save the improvisation he calls his life; he's making up the steps to The Hard Karma Shuffle.
