Sam is dead, which means that Elsie Jane has just lost the brilliant, sensitive man she planned to grow old with. The early days of grief are a fog of work and single parenting. Too restless to sleep, Elsie pores over Sam's old love letters, paces her house, and bickers with the ghosts of Sam and her dead parents night after night. As the year unfolds, she develops an obsession with a local murder mystery, attends a series of disastrous internet dates in search of a "replacement soulmate," and solicits a space-time wizard via Craigslist.

Dave seemed to have it all. A successful career, a loving family, the respect of everyone around him. But behind the polished surface, he was drinking in secret, convincing himself it wasn’t a problem. No arrests. No missed meetings. Just a few drinks to relax… The Double Life of a High-Functioning Alcoholic is a raw, memoir-style novel inspired by Howard Kane’s own sobriety journey. It takes you inside the hidden world of high-functioning addiction where success becomes a mask, denial runs deep, and every drink feels both normal and dangerous.

Un soir de vent noir, Mouchette, 14 ans, emprunte les bois pour retourner dans son foyer, une masure imprégnée de misère, d’alcoolisme et de maladie. La pluie s’abat sur la jeune fille lorsqu’elle croise le chemin d’Arsène, qui lui propose de s’abriter chez lui. L’homme l’enivre d’histoires extraordinaires pour l’impressionner. Le genièvre réchauffe la gorge et échauffe le corps du braconnier. Mouchette, sans défense, est violée. Quelque temps plus tard, sa mère décède sans que l’enfant ait pu lui confier son terrible fardeau, ce sentiment de honte qui ne la quittera plus, jusqu’au drame.
