He thought he had found the perfect job. He didn't know he was walking into a nightmare. Ian Carter is tired of being overlooked. So when Global Tobacco offers him a management position, a new home, and a fresh start, the opportunity seems impossible to refuse. But something is wrong at Global Tobacco. Employees begin dying in mysterious circumstances. In Malawi, young tobacco worker Mbwana is becoming dangerously ill-and the name Ramia keeps returning from a past the company would rather forget. Meanwhile, detectives Paul Kemper and Grace Higgins are trying to understand deaths that leave behind disturbing clues, including a tobacco beetle found inside one of the victims. As Ian digs deeper into the company he has joined, he discovers that the polished image of Global Tobacco hides darker secrets involving exploitation, corruption, and a buried tragedy in the tobacco fields. And Ramia has returned. He is no longer the man people remember. Something has changed him-something born from suffering, anger, and a hunger for justice. Now Ian must uncover the truth before the body count rises again. Because some secrets refuse to stay buried... and some vengeance is not of this world. Up In Smoke is a dark supernatural horror thriller combining corporate conspiracy, police investigation, international intrigue, and paranormal revenge.
