Fading fast at 11 p.m., Elizabeth texted her dealer and waited just 30 minutes for him to reach her third-floor New York apartment. She handed him a wad of twenties and fifties, received a tattered envelope of pills, and returned to her computer.

She gulped down one pill — pale orange, like baby aspirin — and then, reconsidering, took one of the pinks, too.
