Synopsis
Uncertainty is a darkly erotic, tautly plotted psychological thriller. It marks the American debut of the exciting young Danish writer Michael Larsen. Martin Molberg, a tabloid journalist with a history of mental instability,is suspected of murdering his girlfriend, Monique. To clear his name Molberg must track down the real killer. In the process he uncovers evidence that Monique was leading a double life: a photo of her engaged in kinky sex; an inexplicable deposit of millions in their joint bank account; a cryptic note from a man named Pascal. Molberg's obsessive search takes him from Copenhagen to Los Angeles. Along the way he stumbles into the realm of high technology gone awry and a web of intrigue and murder involving Hollywood, the National Security Agency, pornographers, and image manipulators. Downing Dexedrine and Thorazine with scotch chasers, he begins to question his sense of reality as he sifts through circuitous and contradictory evidence. The more he discovers, the harder it becomes for him to distinguish what is real and what is not. With the verve of William Gibson and the sophisticated suspense of Michael Crichton, Uncertainty is a distrubing vision of life in the postcomputer age.

About More Than Words Inc.
More Than Words empowers youth who are in foster care, court-involved, homeless or out of school to take charge of their lives by taking charge of a business. MTW believes that when system-involved youth are challenged with authentic and increasing responsibilities in a business setting, and are given high expectations and a culture of support, they can and will address personal barriers to success, create concrete action plans for their lives, and become contributing members of society. More Than Words began as an online bookselling training program for youth in DCF custody in 2004 and opened its vibrant bookstore on Moody St in Waltham in 2005 and added its Starbucks coffee bar in 2008. MTW replicated its model in the South End of Boston in 2011, thereby doubling the number of youth served annually.
