Caleb Cross is worried his best friend Bigger Falkirk has lost more than his left nut after a tragic misadventure in South America. Since he got back, Bigger has been performing protests from a guide Caleb composed in high school. The guide contained a variety of recipes for sowing anarchy--recipes like the Pig Farm Prison Break and the Superstore Slash and Bash. They were all cock-sure, completely reckless, and written mainly to impress a girl. Now, however, Bigger and his gang of itinerant followers are causing major property damage and putting a great many lives at risk. Complicating things, forces seem to be driving Caleb and Bigger toward a destiny far stranger and more perplexing than either could imagine.
