ABOUT THE BOOK

When addiction is your prison, can you choose freedom—or will the darkness consume you?

Mike had a family. Blake had a future. Betty, Milo, and Bam had dreams. Now, they’ve lost everything—trapped in a cycle of addiction, pain, and survival on society’s brutal edge. But when they’re abducted and placed inside a mysterious experimental facility, they’re given an impossible choice: indulge in endless drugs and alcohol… or fight to reclaim their lives.

Each patient awakens in a pristine white room with flashing messages on the walls—Choose Life, Not Death. The catch? A black refrigerator filled with every substance they’ve ever craved. For some, it’s a dream. For others, it’s a test. For all of them, it’s a battle for their souls.

Rats in a Cage is a gritty, raw, and unflinching look into the psychology of addiction, trauma, and redemption. Perfect for fans of emotionally driven fiction with high-stakes psychological tension, this novel explores the power of choice—and the price of freedom.

Will they relapse into oblivion… or rise above it?

If you’re drawn to dark literary fiction, psychological thrillers, or gripping stories of recovery and survival, this book will stay with you long after the final page.
