The violence, intrigue, and betrayal of the era gave birth to the next generation. Book II: The Tyranny of Chaos, continues the story of post-war prosperity and a generation split between the values of their parents and dissipation of drug addiction and nihilism featured in the marriage between the addict, Adrienne Fournier, and Nick Baker, a borderline psychopath.
