Waiting for the Green Flash

A simple jeep accident and the end to a military career, enough to send a man into a permanent funk. A San Diego beach town proves to be a poor place to lick the wounds of battle and career loss. If the resident zanies are not enough, there are the rotating tourists who rent for a week. Among them, Lia, the beautiful Brazilian temptress, a giddy sorority and Howard Grout, who?s in tiles. It?s no wonder Choppy?s psychiatrist sees his progress as slow, at best, and why Choppy does not share with him the incidents of confrontation which seem to occur all too frequently. Much like the beach culture itself, the women in Choppy?s life range from the erratic to the illusive. But even romance can?t be simple for Choppy Spencer and the danger to the women becomes one more test of his own courage.
