- Book Synopsis
- A razor-sharp, neon-noir thriller for the stage, by a leading Canadian dramatist. A young woman is missing. The prime suspect is an affluent member of the secretive Luminia organisation. Enter Asha Ray, a deprogrammer who specialises in extracting people from dangerous cults. With no business card or office, Asha is known only by reputation - a last resort for desperate loved ones willing to work outside the law. Teaming up with retired detective Reuben Medina, she descends into a treacherous world of hidden motives and elite corruption. Together, Asha and Reuben must work to outsmart a powerful predator and uncover the truth before time runs out. Michaela Jeffery's contemporary crime drama is a cry for justice for women on the wrong side of a system built to protect the wealthy and powerful. This gritty, suspenseful play will keep you guessing until the very end. The Extractionist was first performed at Vertigo Theatre, Calgary, Alberta, Canada in 2023.
