In this moving, emotionally charged, and unflinching look
at alcoholism and its effects, lawyer and prominent
National Public Radio writer and commentator Heather King
describes her twenty-year-long descent into the depths of
addiction with wit and candor. King went from a highly
functioning alcoholic who managed to maintain her grip on
reality to living in the lowest of dive bars, drinking
around the clock and barely sustaining an existence. With
help from the most unexpected source, King stopped her self-
destructive spiral and changed her world for the better.
This is the poignant, painfully honest, and inspirational
true story of a woman who looked into the abyss, and was
able to step back from the edge and reclaim her life on her
own terms.
