"This fantasy about a drug that gives users a perfect week, then sudden death, is compelling fiction—and nearly a masterpiece." — The Guardian
A new drug is on the street. Everyone's buzzing about it. Take the hit. Live the most intense week of your life. Then die. It's the ultimate high at the ultimate price. Adam thinks it over. He's poor, and doesn't see that changing. Lizzie, his girlfriend, can't make up her mind about sleeping with him, so he can't get laid. His brother Jess is missing. And Manchester is in chaos, controlled by drug dealers and besieged by a group of homegrown terrorists who call themselves the Zealots. Wouldn't one amazing week be better than this endless, penniless misery? After Adam downs one of the Death pills, he's about to find out.
"A boundary pushing thriller. . . . Amid violent action, existential anguish, and the heightened appreciation for life that death can bring, Burgess has created a premise that readers will find hard to forget." — Publishers Weekly
"Viscerally exciting and emotionally engaging. . . . A clear winner from Burgess." — Booklist
"An exciting, dark story of sex, drugs, and revolution that is sure to grip readers." — School Library Journal
