The Tethered Unicorn Elizabeth Wixley

The day Mike's dealer failed to show up was the catalyst that forced Mike and his girlfriend rosie to take the first steps on a sometimes bizarre and tragic journey. Their addiction compels them to steal from the type of people that would stop at nothing to retrieve their treasure. Slowly the couple become progressively more entangled in a web of their own making. The story begins in London in 1985 when Rosie receives a gift she may later regret accepting. As a naturally shy girl, Rosie had not wanted to be in a relationship with Mike. He had trapped her and now it was too late to extricate herself from the situation. However, fate intervenes and swings their fortunes back and forth like a pendulum, from love to hate and from trechery to tragedy.
