About this listen

The year is 1967. The Summer of Love explodes in San Francisco, a siren song for dreamers and idealistic runaways. Haunted by his Vietnam War experiences, disillusioned Clyde Thomas returns home to Tennessee, only to find that his sister has vanished. Naturally his parents want him to go and find her.

Clyde reluctantly ventures into Haight Ashbury's intoxicating swirl of psychedelic music, antiwar protests, and newfound freedoms. Amidst the flower children and civil unrest, Clyde's path collides with the mesmerizing Moonbeam. Their undeniable romance offers a lifeline in a world Clyde no longer understands.

So, like Dante in The Inferno, he is led through the weirdness of drugs and music and danger on a mission which seems impossible. But, even as love blossoms, a dark secret haunts the summer's euphoria. And when sudden tragedy strikes, Clyde's search for his sister turns into a desperate quest for revenge in a city that is supposed to radiate only peace and love.

Author Ralph Griffith, a firsthand witness to that iconic era, weaves a masterful tapestry of the Summer of Love—its transcendent beauty and its lurking shadows. . Readers of all ages will be captivated by the timeless love story of Clyde and Moonbeam, set against the backdrop of San Francisco's tumultuous cultural revolution. 'Summer of Love 1967' delivers a gritty crime drama with heart, an unforgettable story of love, loss, and a nation at a turbulent crossroads.

It was a pretty good listen, the AI reading is almost unnoticeable except for certain words.
The story is good it’s historically accurate and not corny it’s a short read so I guess s that’s why u never really learn much about the characters.
Still it is a good story especially if you’re into books that transport you directly in a certain era!

Good listen
