Adrenaline explores the hunger for adventure that is as basic a need for some people as food, drink, or love . . . some people crave an adrenaline rush the way a heroin addict craves a fix. Two corporate opponents: One, Steve Dern, becomes CEO; the other, Geoff Mann, ends up on the street, where his taste for extreme sports and a chance encounter with a desperate young prostitute show him that murder delivers the best rush of all. Then, Geoff thrusts Steve into a dangerous game with Steve’s wife, Lisa, as the prize. To save her, Steve must find a way to make Geoff feel pain. To experience fear. He must scare a man who has just discovered how much he likes to kill. Adrenaline is a no-holds-barred thriller that lives up to its name.
