My sophmore novel will be available at Amazon September 2011!
This story takes place in Oakland, California in the mid nineties.
No one sets out to become an addict. It happens wih the first wrong choice of abuse - a survival mechanism to escape reality or the experience of an altered state of mind for recreation. It's a dangerous game of Russian Roulette that leads to destruction - self respect, appearance, health, family unity, financial worthiness, and...ultimately, death.
Michael was in love and when he lost it he went through the motions of living until his money was gone and his gold digging wife kicked him to the curb for another man.
As he fights to recover from his alcohol and pain pill addiction, he discovers how easily the love of money becomes the root of all evil when he becomes the Director of END ALL TO BE ALL. An ADP program geared to assist others suffering from various alcohol/drug related addictions is where he learns first hand that addiction is an imprisoned state of mind without bars. Most importantly, he learns how money can become the root of evil.
This is a story of recovery and Michael's quest for a better program.
