Anyone who has studied the effects of sugar plantations on the Americas has surely found, as in so many other instances, that a lot of evil can come from something that should otherwise have been very sweet.

Tom can sort of relate. He has more smarts than any sane person would ever ask for, but they don't seem to help him act on his relationship with Claire, the lively and talented sociology Ph.D. he began dating several months ago.

Russell, his roommate, seems to embody the principle--he's set up for life, spending his time and money accumulating classic cars, rare jazz records, comic books--whatever strikes his fancy. In fact, he has no problem acting on whatever pops into his mind, be it making antique reproductions, holding a great barbeque, or, as we might see, perhaps something much more nefarious.

In The Sugar Rush everyone faces the same basic temptation: can you control your life--can you live perpetually in the good life? Because, after all, even the good life has its dark side.
