This abstract is from the cover of the book.
Controversial Harvard-educated neurobiologist Simon LeVay, best known for his astounding biological theories of sexuality, has created a compelling and horrifying realistic new novel.
With ALBRICK'S GOLD, Simon LeVay has fashioned the darker ramifications of today's cutting-edge science into a classic medical thriller. Dr. Roger Cavendish, one of America's leading researchers into the mysteries of sexuality and the mind, finds himself faced with a medical mystery straight out of his worst nightmares. Guy Albrick, Dr. Cavendish's rival, claims to have developed a "treatment" for homosexuality. But has he already gone one step further and initiated a series of highly unorthodox and unethical human experiments? With a little help, Roger Covendish begins to probe the complex and disturbing questions surrounding Dr. Albrick's work — and its connection to a series of shocking crimes.
“LeVay's premise and execution are original and engaging.”
