Rövid leírás:
Dr. Carder Stout&&&39;s memoir&&&160;about his fall from grace into addiction to crack; finding redemption in the most unlikely of places.
Hosszú leírás:
Psychologist to the Hollywood elite Dr. Carder Stout delivers a page-turning memoir&&&160;about his fall from grace into the gritty underbelly of crack addiction, running drugs for the Shoreline Crips, surviving homelessness, escaping a murder plot, and finding redemption in the most unlikely of places.
As a therapist to Hollywood’s elite, Dr. Carder Stout’s clientele includes Oscar-, Golden Globe-, Emmy-, Tony- and Grammy-winners, bestselling authors, and billionaires.&&&160;He may not be able to share their dark secrets, but for the first time, everyone will know his.&&&160;
At the age of thirty-four, Carder would have gladly pawned the silver spoon he was born choking on for a rock of crack. His downfall was as swift as his privilege was vast…or had he been falling all along?
Raised in a&&&160;Georgetown mansion and educated at exclusive institutions, Carder ran with a crowd of movers, shakers, and future Oscar-winners in New York City. But words like “promise” and “potential” are meaningless in the face of serious addiction. Lost years and a stint in rehab later, when Carder was a dirty, broke, soon-to-be-homeless crackhead wandering the streets of Venice, California. His lucky break came thanks to his old Ford Taurus: he lands a job of driving for a philosophical drug czar with whom he finds friendship and self-worth as he helps deliver quality product to LA’s drug enthusiasts, from&&&160;trust-fund kids, gang affiliates, trophy wives, hip-hop producers, and Russian pimps. But even his loyalty and protection can’t save Carder from the peril of the streets--or the eventual contract on his life.&&&160;
From a youth of affluence to the hit the Shoreline Crips put on his life, Carder delves deep into life on the streets.&&&160;Lost in Ghost Town&&&160;is a riveting, raw, and heartfelt&&&160;look at the power of addiction, the beauty of redemption, and finding truth somewhere in between.
&&&160;
“This is a great read. I was deeply moved and inspired by the story. The writing is rich and poignant. I highly recommend it.”
--Gwyneth Paltrow, Academy-Award winning actress, founder of goop
