An explosion during an unlicensed, experimental treatment leaves people dead or injured. Lies and secrets obscure exactly what happened that day. An interesting premise, but it was missing something for me.

This book read like a movie -- one of those smart sci-fi films like Inception or Interstellar. If you like those movies and are a reader, I'd recommend it to you.

A beautiful and sad novel about the ravage and toll AIDS took on the gay community in Chicago in the 1980s, and the pain it left in its aftermath. I loved the characters and reading about a Chicago that was before my adulthood.
