Summary

In 1970 Los Angeles, perpetually stoned private investigator Doc Sportello takes on a tangled case when his ex-girlfriend asks him to look into a plot against her new lover, a wealthy real estate developer. As Doc stumbles through a haze of disappearances, cults, dentists, and a shadowy syndicate called the Golden Fang, he tangles with a flat-topped LAPD detective and tries to make sense of a counterculture giving way to something darker.
