About the book :

Savage, feral, and frighteningly smart. Luke Goebel doesn’t simply tell a story; he eviscerates. Kill Dick is a biting literary thriller that lays bare the absurdity of obscene wealth while dissecting the opioid epidemic with devastating precision. Though the subject matter is relentless, the delivery is darkly hilarious and anchored by engrossing characters. Intellectually rigorous and unflinchingly honest, this is a triumph that belongs on everyone’s pre-order list.
