Jumia Books UNETHICAL Author: Lauren Biel

UNETHICAL by Lauren Biel is a chilling, psychologically layered dark drama that plunges into the murky waters of morality, manipulation, and emotional entanglement. Performed in duet by Mariana Olmeda and Christian Alexis, the story unfolds through dual perspectives, amplifying the tension and intimacy of a narrative built on secrets and shattered boundaries.

The cover sets the tone with symbolic imagery: skulls, purple pansies, handcuffs, and torn paper labeled “PATIENT.” These elements hint at a story rooted in clinical settings, where the lines between professional duty and personal desire blur dangerously. A cloud with a keyhole suggests hidden truths waiting to be unlocked—truths that may be better left buried.

As the characters navigate a world of ethical compromise and emotional vulnerability, they confront the consequences of obsession, power imbalance, and the human need to connect—even when it’s wrong. Biel’s prose is haunting and cerebral, perfect for readers who crave psychological depth, moral ambiguity, and stories that challenge conventional notions of right and wrong.
