Proclivity: A Novel (The Lamiaceae Chronicles)

Matt Sizemore is emotionally broken. A failed marriage and string of bad investments are his rewards for poor decision making, but one more decision, tantalizing him on late-night TV, could make him a threat to the structure of global civilization. Matt orders a cutting edge antidepressant from the smarmy pitchman on TV, and what the postman delivers is a pill that opens a doorway into Matt's mind of extreme visions and dreams that keep him from sleeping but open a window to new possibilities. Eventually, the nightly visions become so persuasive that he embarks on a cross-country journey of revenge against the drug maker until foreseen events get in his way. Acutely aware of a swath of suicides caused by the drug across the country, newly hired FDA agent, Kevin Sharpe is tasked to investigate the cause. What he discovers is a world of super-secret government agencies and scientific experimentation pushing the limits of human cognition and leaving a sole survivor of a rogue test-Matt Sizemore. One man's simple attempt to mend his broken life positions him at the center of a thrilling, national conspiracy with frightening implications. And this is only part one.
