Claustrophobic thriller questioning morality in confinement.

Imagine finding yourself confined in a dark, oppressive world where safety is a paradox, and each day teeters on the brink of tyranny and rebellion. 'The Pharmacist' plunges you into such an existence, where the lines between ally and adversary blur. Rachelle Atalla masterfully builds a world as eerily foreign as it is uncomfortably familiar, making this a perfect pick if you're craving a story that simmers with tension and challenges the human spirit's resilience.

Description

The bunker is designed to keep them all safe. In the end, very few people made it to the bunker. Now they wait there for the outside world to heal. Wolfe is one of the lucky ones. She's safe and employed as the bunker's pharmacist, doling out medicine under the watchful eye of their increasingly erratic and paranoid leader. But when the leader starts to ask things of Wolfe, favours she can hardly say no to, it seems her luck is running out. Forming an unlikely alliance with the young Doctor Stirling, her troubled assistant Levitt, and Canavan - a tattooed giant of a man who's purpose in the bunker is a mystery - Wolfe must navigate the powder keg of life underground where one misstep will light the fuse. The walls that keep her safe also have her trapped. How much more is Wolfe willing to give to stay alive?
