In Heroin(e): Hermetic, Nina Sullivan, now in her thirties, has spent the past fourteen years unsuccessfully stopping synthetic heroin's rise as Earth's most popular illegal drug. In the wake of synthetic heroin's grip across America's cities and suburbs, the country Nina and Konrad inhabit in 2017 is unrecognizable to the one they knew in 2002, and the web of chaos surrounding synthetic heroin's origin they were once part of has evolved into something far more dangerous.

​

Now, in a fractured and politically volatile America, Nina must confront the creators of x-2317, privately known as an esoteric group called The Others, whose wealth and influence stretch far and wide across the globe. As Nina and Konrad struggle to unravel the mystery of x-2317s true origin, the stakes escalate—both for their personal futures and for the future of the planet itself. With Konrad’s increasing arrogance and ambitions, Nina must fight to stop the global annihilation that The Others plan to enact, all while learning the true cost of being a pawn in a game played by forces beyond her comprehension.

​

Heroin(e): Hermetic is a high-stakes, intricately plotted thriller with a focus on psychological manipulation, multidimensional intrigue, and the battle for control in a world where reality itself is in flux. Fans of The Man in the High Castle by Phillip K. Dick and Dark Matter by Brian Crouch will be captivated by its suspenseful twists and complex characters.
