All Things Green

Bol

The economy is booming, stock markets are soaring, and opportunities for prosperity have never been stronger.Jack Adams, a young man working for a mid-size pharmaceutical company, is eager to take advantage of these heady times. When a strange man rises from his seat at a stockholders' meeting and accuses the company of conducting a heinous crime to protect the market share of their prize anti-inflammatory drug, Jack gallantly (and foolishly) confronts the stranger to defend the integrity and honour of the company. A public inquiry is arranged and Jack, relishing the prospect of advancement in the firm, begins looking for documentation to refute the stranger's allegations. However, while probing into the company's records, he spots some disturbing discrepancies and possible cover-ups that suggest the stranger's accusations could be true. All that is missing is the proof.As the day of the inquiry draws near, Jack finds himself trapped in a moral quagmire. There is only one way out. He must find the evidence he needs to prove his suspicions. Guided by a few enigmatic clues and the help of an unlikely group of eccentric allies, Jack embarks on a wild weekend adventure that takes him to an elaborate treehouse, a decadent monastery, an abandoned observatory, and a few thin places across the city and countryside. What he discovers is a truth far greater and more valuable than anything he imagined.
