It is 1950's America and madness is in the air. In a world where the 'curs' for craziness includes coma therapy, cyanide treatment, Sulphur injections and full-frontal lobotomies, Dr William T. Friedrich's ambitions are more modest. He just wants to find a way to prescribe happiness. Friedrich, a young ambitious professor pf psychology at Yale, has stumbled upon a drug that promises to make him famous. Derived from an exotic plant, 'The Way Home' seems to possess the secret ingredient of happiness. But Friedrich and his colleague Bunny Winton must find subjects willing to test their hypothesis, and in Casper Gedsic, a fiercely intelligent, socially inept, near-suicidal math's student, they seem to have found their perfect guinea pig. But when their experiment goes awry and Casper's thirst for revenge turns murderous, his actions have consequences that will haunt Friedrich and his family forever. Trade Paperback Ed 2009
