Recent business school graduate Penny Baker has rebelled against her family her whole life\u2014by being the conventional one. Her mother, Amalia, was a member of an Amazonian tribe called the Kogi; her much older father, Norm, long ago attained cult-like deity status among a certain group of aging hippies while operating a \u2018healing center\u2019 in New Jersey. And she\u2019s never felt particularly close to her much-older half-brothers from Norm\u2019s previous marriage-one wickedly charming and obscenely rich (but mostly just wicked), one a photographer on a distant tropical island.<\/p>\n

But all that changes when her father dies, and Penny inherits his childhood home in New Jersey. She goes to investigate the property and finds it occupied by a group of friendly and charming anarchist squatters who have renamed the property Nicotine House. The residents of Nicotine House (defenders of smokers\u2019 rights) possess the type of passion and fervor Penny feels she\u2019s desperately lacking, and the other squatter houses in the neighborhood provide a sense of community she\u2019s never felt before. Penny soon moves into a nearby residence, becoming enmeshed in the political fervor and commitment of her fellow squatters.<\/p>\n

As the Baker family\u2019s lives begin to converge around the fate of the Nicotine House, Penny grows ever bolder and more desperate to protect it-and its residents-until a fateful night when a reckless confrontation between her old family and her new one changes everything. <\/p>\n
