Description:Colleen Kerrigan wakes up sick and bruised, with no clear memory of the night before. It' s Monday morning, and she is late for work again. She' s shocked to see the near-empty vodka bottle on her kitchen counter. It was full at noon yesterday; surely she didn' t drink that much last night? As she struggles out the door, she fights the urge to have a sip, just to take the edge off. But no, she' s not going to drink today.But this is the day Colleen' s demons come for her. A very bad day spirals into night as a series of flashbacks take the reader through Colleen' s past-- moments of friendship and loss, fragments of peace and possibility. The single constant is the bottle, always close by, Colleen' s worst enemy and her only friend.In this unforgettable work, acclaimed novelist Lauren B. Davis has created as searing, raw and powerful a portrayal of the chaos and pain of alcoholism as we have encountered in fiction.
