As a recovering opioid addict this is a subject that is very important to me so when I read the description of this story I was intrigued, to say the least. and I hate to have to say that because I REALLY wanted to love this book. Drawn by what the drugs offer - tempted to take that step past helpful to harmful…and the troubled places that lie beyond.īut there are two I Rameys - Isaac, a soccer player thrown into Roxy’s orbit by a bad fall and a bad doctor, and Ivy, his older sister, whose increasing frustration with her untreated ADHD leads her to renew her acquaintance with Addy. And you are only human, dazzled by the lights and music. The wager - a contest to see who can bring their mark to “the Party” first - is a race to the bottom of a rave that has raged since the beginning of time. The victim of the bet between two manufactured gods: the seductive and lethal Roxy (Oxycontin), who is at the top of her game, and the smart, high-achieving Addison (Adderall), who is tired of being the helpful one and longs for a more dangerous, less wholesome image. Yet there you are, in the fifth house on the left, fighting for your life. Construction has already started, pushing toward this corridor of condemned houses and cracked concrete with the momentum of the inevitable. From the team that brought you the New York Times best-selling Dry comes a riveting new thriller that proves when gods play games, even love is a lie.
