Ejunky
In 2055, technology has transformed humanity. Nerve Reading Devices (N.R.D.s) share dreams. Emo-Regs filter emotions. Pain and suffering have become commodities in a world where they are virtually illegal.
But a black market thrives on the forbidden. Addicts called eJunkies seek the rawest experiences through Torch, a drug made from other people’s most painful memories.
When disgraced investigator and eJunky Hector Holmes nearly overdoses, his former partner pulls him back into service. A terrorist cell called the Guardians of Pain is flooding the world with Torch to awaken society to a buried past—and ignite revolution.
Hector’s only ally is Astra, a dream celebrity whose hacked broadcasts spread the cult’s message. But to follow the Guardians' trail and find their elusive leader, X, Hector must keep dosing Torch—fracturing his grip on reality as his visions pull loved ones into his unraveling mind.
The key to saving the future may lie buried in a painful past he can no longer remember.
The past is blurred. The future uncertain. The cure deadly.
