He was stunned when a priest interrupted evensong services at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco to tell Pike that his son had been found dead in a Manhattan...
...handed me a printed list of drugs, kept in a desk drawer in Avatar's Rutland St. office in Roxbury. The drug list, ranging from "caapi, extract of banisteria caapi or seeds of wild rue," to sominex, had only LSD, marijuana, hashish, mescaline, and psilocybin marked as useful...
