| Mr. 2 |
| BY Matt Cook (Forthcoming) |
| |
Winston Strider, born to wealth in California, and Rohan Rai, an impoverished orphan in India, are as outwardly different as two boys can be . . .
Except they are just one person, split across two bodies sharing one mind, one awake as the other sleeps.
As his single consciousness shuttles back and forth, he pursues answers to his condition as a research scientist on one continent, struggling to survive poverty on the other. He hides the secret of his two selves for fear of being institutionalized, or ostracized by those he loves.
But balancing his two lives isn’t easy, leading him into a web of lies and deceptions that force him to question just who he really is . . . and to make choices about what life he wants to live.
Mr. 2 is in development with Sony Television for a major TV show.

| A philosophical thrill-ride of discovery, romance, suspense, and corporate espionage. Hold on tight as Mr. 2 sweeps you from your cozy living room to the swirling sands of Rajasthan, to the foothills of the Himalayas, to a remote island in the Pacific—and lets you view the world through a second pair of eyes. A global adventure of the mind and heart with piping-hot sizzle along the way, the story reaches deep into your soul and asks what it means to live an integrated life. Mr. 2 is his own best friend and worst enemy . . . but could that be true of all of us? |
