In the Weeds

By Patrick F. McLaughlin & Lily McCausland

Barb and Sydney have hated each other since middle school. Sydney had the smarts, and Barb had the brand name jeans. Now, as middle-aged mothers, they have to team up to find their sons’ drug dealer. The two journey through their Long Island hometown, but never stop insulting each other along the way. What begins as a joint-mission quickly devolves into a game of one-upmanship. Through this, their dark and embarrassing past slowly unravels.
