Quick Hitter

Inspired by true events, Drug Spies tells the incredible, never-before-detailed story of the mercenaries who operate on behalf of multinational drug companies, dispatched by Big Pharma to take down the most prominent generic drug producer in the world. More specifically, it’s about two former CIA special forces soldiers, best friends, forged by bonds deeper than blood, but slowly realizing they want very different things for their futures as they come to terms with their traumatic pasts. 

It is through the lens of our two main characters that we’re exposed to an exotic, high-stakes world where ethics and morals are fast and loose. Yes, at the end of the day, drugs save millions of lives. But at what cost? How many lives is it okay to sacrifice, how many laws can we break, all in the name of progress? This gets to the heart of the series – how much bad can we get away with in the name of doing good? Drug Spies is both a rollicking thriller and gimlet-eyed view of our post-capitalism world; the product of 10 years of research and countless top secret sources, promising to be unlike anything we’ve seen before.
