Thriller
Nearly two decades in the making, the long-awaited follow up to the instant cult classic that became the basis for the Limitless franchise The long-awaited sequel to Alan Glynn's debut novelโthe cult classic that became the basis for the Limitless franchiseโReceptor is an irresistible thriller about the seductive power, and dangers, of unlocking the human mind. On a Friday evening in 1953, Madison Avenue ad executive Ned Sweeney enjoys a cocktail in the apartment of a strange and charismatic man he met hours earlier. Ned doesn't know it, but he has just become a participant in Project MKUltra, a covert, CIA-run study of mind-control techniques. Overwhelming and transformative, the experience pulls Ned away from his wife and young son and into the inner circles of the richest and most powerful people of his day. In a matter of months, he is dead. It is a tragedy Nedโs family struggles to understand, then tries to forgetโฆbut some skeletons refuse to stay buried. Over sixty years later, Nedโs grandson Ray is introduced to a retired government official who claims to know the details of Nedโs life and death. Ray is prepared to dismiss the encounter, until he discovers that the now-elderly man once worked for the CIA. Ray digs deeper, and begins to question everything as he uncovers rumors of an immensely powerful โsmart drugโโa fabled cognitive enhancer called MDT-48.
