An ambitious, effective hybrid of guilt-soaked cop drama, cosmic horror, and conceptual SF. - Kirkus Reviews
Retired Minneapolis cop Jack Winter has found an unlikely treatment for the PTSD that's destroying his life: psychedelic mushrooms. They help. The impossible things he sees while taking them don't.
Jack assumes the bizarre visions are nothing more than the product of an altered mind-until a friend gives him access to experimental technology capable of capturing and interpreting what he sees during a trip.
There is something inside the hallucinations.
Something that shouldn't be there.
As Jack follows the message buried within his psychedelic experiences, the boundary between hallucination and reality begins to collapse. What starts as an experiment in consciousness pulls him toward something far stranger-and far more dangerous.
Meanwhile, Jack is running out of time to repair the relationship he's damaged most. His teenage daughter, Jane, has spent years watching her father disappear into alcohol, guilt, and grief. She no longer needs his promises.
She needs him to become her father again.
And when Jane is pulled into the nightmare Jack has uncovered, understanding what's happening inside his mind becomes more than an obsession.
It may be the only way to save her.
Contact High is a psychedelic science-fiction thriller about guilt, consciousness, impossible second chances-and a father discovering just how far he'll go for the daughter who stopped believing in him.
It'll blow your mind; and that's the point! - Dennis McKenna, PhD, founder of the McKenna Academy of Natural Philosophy
