This memoir explores how heroin shaped every aspect of Khar's life for fifteen years and details the various lies she told herself, and others, about her drug use.
What The Reviewers Say
Juliet Escoria,
The New York Times Book Review
The book starts out with the thrill of an early Bret Easton Ellis novel — except Khar’s characters aren’t nihilists. She provides a voyeuristic look into her mid-80s world of prep schools and famous L.A. rock clubs; into her life as the cool rich girl with her older boyfriend and Guess jeans.

... a compassionate account of [Khar's] illness and will surely be the gold standard for women writing about heroin addiction.
