Nat Bonney is down and out - homeless, drinking hard, and suicidal after the loss of his wife and young daughter in a tragic fire. Ellen Montane is a single mom, an ambitious R.N. attached to a shady university research project testing an experimental psychoactive drug to cure addiction. Bonney becomes a partially-willing subject in the latest experiment, but the project spins out of control: he experiences hallucinations and mystical visions, and he and Ellen begin to fall in love. The experiment seems to succeed, however, and the project director decides he must destroy the evidence of his illegal human testing in anticipation of a new round of funding. Bonney, Ellen, and her young son flee, pursued by the director's hit man, but help comes from an unexpected quarter as society's dropouts and discards give them shelter. Finally, they take refuge with the Rainbow People at a tribal gathering in the Sangre de Cristo mountains. Here, they start to wake up from their nightmare of the American Dream and their healing begins. But the hit man is closing in.Yelling Man is a contemporary literary thriller and adult love story. The work blends and bends genres in a story with a fast-paced plot, strong characters, and social commentary.
