Description
A literary thriller that plunges into the chaos of Los Angeles, Kill Dick is a dark and satirical exploration of wealth, exploitation, and the perilous line between survival and self-destruction. At its centre is Susie Vogelman, an NYU dropout with no responsibilities, who finds herself drawn into a web of privilege, corruption, and violence. As a string of brutal murders targeting addicts spreads through the city, Susie's ivory tower begins to crumble. Her father's ties to an opioid empire and a sinister secret society come under scrutiny, forcing her to confront her own complicity in the systems holding it all together. Meanwhile, Peter Holiday, a disgraced professor running a rehab scam, becomes embroiled in a complex game of cat and mouse. With razor-sharp prose, Luke Goebel dissects the darker aspects of Los Angeles, revealing a city where addiction, privilege, and corruption combust. This is a modern literary thriller that unflinchingly explores the consequences of our actions, and the devastating effects they can have on ourselves and others.
