U - Paperback

by Jim Nicklin (Author)

U is a fast-paced crime novel that explores a bold alternative to overcoming society's struggles with drugs and alcohol while delving into the true forces behind human sexuality.

If it's true that men think with their dicks, and women think, then what happens when that process is enhanced? Rachel, a brilliant organic chemist and Sam, her husband find themselves ensnared in a web of ambition, addiction, and dangerous secrets. When they strike a Faustian deal with the enigmatic Massey Mancuso to create the ultimate recreational drug, their lives take a perilous turn. As they journey deep into this capricious world, they face betrayals, violence and startling revelations that confront their reality. U explores the seductive power of science and hedonism and the morally ambiguous world of drug development in the overlap between Big Pharma and the criminal underworld.
