B. Alexander Owen’s debut novel takes readers into the chaotic and drug dependent world of Stiv Baker, a part-time writer and long time Oxycodone addict.
When Stiv’s monthly trip to the pharmacy goes terribly wrong, one disaster follows the next. With growing anxiety and the onset of withdrawals, he sees his life spinning out of control.
He must pull out of the dangerous riptide of addiction or lose everything including his marriage.
Although drug addiction and recovery are part of the dramatic and emotional story of WEST OF THE SOUND, the author writes an engaging portrait of today’s rational man willing to take responsibility for his actions.
A compelling story of one man’s battle with his inner demons and his better angels, West of the Sound is equal parts gritty, heartbreaking and hilarious.
