When a pharmaceutical executive wakes up in a strange apartment and finds herself suspected of the murder of her company’s CEO. Believing she’s insane, or a murderer, Jillian Cooper finds herself on the run from not only the police but also gang enforcers.

Life-sustaining prescription drugs are a trillion-dollar industry, but who really knows what’s hidden inside those pills and capsules? Big Pharma has a secret and it’s costing thousands of lives. Prison gangs and corporate board members make strange bedfellows, but where there’s money to be had, peace exists through an off-the-books Black Label drug lab. Jillian is left to unravel the company’s secrets before she lands in jail or becomes another victim.

Praise for this book

"James L'Etoile's BLACK LABEL is a delightfully complex and twisty thriller with a ripped-from-the-headlines plot that will make you think long and hard before you swallow your next dose of medication. Add in an intrepid heroine willing to do whatever it takes to uncover the truth no matter the cost, and L'Etoile's newest offering is a winner!" - Karen Dionne

"Tight, terrific, terrifying. BLACK LABEL delves into the murky world of pharmaceuticals where profit is prioritized above all else. L'Etoile creates a strong female lead in Jillian Cooper, a woman who faces obstacle after obstacle, but still charges into the abyss. More unnerving than a fistful of amphetamines. Unputdownable." - K J Howe

"Relentlessly fast-paced and compellingly twisty! The talented James L'Etoile sets up an irresistibly high-stakes situation: a woman is certain to be charged with murder and doesn't remember a thing. Can she prove her innocence before she's silenced forever? A dark journey through the world of big Pharma and big money-you will turn the pages as fast as you can." - Hank Phillippi Ryan

"If this book had a tag, it would say 'proceed with caution' because nothing is what it seems. Told with a vivid and visceral style, this is le Carré's Constant Gardener meets The Fugitive. As the title suggests, BLACK LABEL is a top of the line thriller." - Gabriel Valjan
