Through the haze, the truth is revealed On the surface, Hempstead is a typical Midwestern small town. But glance past the manicured lawns, and youll find the people of the cannabis underground. Some are dealers, and some wear suits to pay for their lifestyle. But one is about to send the world up in smoke. Mara K. Etons The Hypocrites exposes the gritty inner lives of these everyday people. Theres Mya, who buries her wealth behind sarcasm, and Penna complacent weed dealer. Ina is an IT worker, and Bob is the cautious procurer, who delivers his wares in taxidermy raccoons. Jody is an artistic vandal with a guarded heart. And then theres Sean, the woman who falls into an affair with Sam, a con artist. When Seans unrequited love frays his over-medicated nerves, Sam sets into motion a whirlwind that threatens them all. The Hypocrites unfolds through seven narratives, giving inside views of love and hate, hidden histories, and dreams of the future that come to light through the haze.
