Soon to be the major motion picture Pain Hustlers starring Emily
Blunt and Chris Evans streaming on Netflix âA pacey crime caper
set against the backdrop of the opioid crisis . . . When I tell you
that reading The Hard Sell is like watching a Scorsese film, you
will assume I am exaggerating. Pick it up and tell me Iâm wrong.'
- Patrick Radden Keefe, The New York Times In the early 2000s, John
Kapoor had already amassed a small fortune in pharmaceuticals when
he founded Insys Therapeutics. A boom time for painkillers, he had
developed a novel formulation of fentanyl, the most potent opioid
on the market. Kapoor, a brilliant scientist with relentless
business instincts, was eager to make the most of his innovation.
But there was a problem: the drug was approved only for cancer
patients in dire condition. So he recruited an avaricious team, who
employed a variety of deceptive techniques, from falsifying patient
records to deceiving insurance companies. Insys became a Wall
Street sensation. That is, until insiders reached their breaking
point and blew the whistle, sparking a sprawling investigation in
the governmentâs fight to hold the drug industry accountable in
the spread of addictive opioids. With colourful characters and true
suspense, The Hard Sell lays bare the pharma playbook. Evan Hughes
offers a bracing look not just at Insys, but at how opioids are
sold at the point they first enter the national bloodstream â in
the doctorâs office . . .

broken, the third and final installment of the silverthought
trilogy by Paul Hughes, is the shattered, non-linear depiction of
the author's struggle to make amends for the war-torn realities he
has written into existence. Equal parts enemy and An End, broken
merges the rich, horrifying universes of the previous installments
of silverthought into one cohesive transgression. Readers of enemy
and An End will recognize characters and places from those stories
thrust into a new war within the author's collapsing mind. broken
is part love letter, part handbook for the apocalypse, and part
confession. The lines between good and evil, love and hate, and
reality and dream blur to a hesitant gray. There are no easy
answers to the recurring questions: Why Seattle? What internal
mathematics, what broken calculus, defines the boundaries of our
sanity? How can we so easily destroy that which we love the most?
broken is an extended meditation on how the way we walk through
life brings into existence countless universes of uncertain design
and the silver latticework that binds us across pasts and futures.
Speculative fiction, metafiction, transgressive fiction... broken
is a fragile metanarrative that defies definition and encourages
questioning.
