"In this bromantic comedy, Bradley Guire writes with humor and compassion about the insidious toll of opioid addiction. With a terrific ear for dialogue and prose that flows like a current, Guire brings his characters to life on the page and sweeps you into their world. A charming and poignant debut novel." - Kim Cross, New York Times Bestselling Author of What Stands in a Storm
Dean Carpenter: Former college baseball player, reporter, and surly bastard.
Also, painkiller addict.
A debilitating back injury suffered during a game left Dean with a heavy reliance on opiates, and years of use has left him beaten and broken. After a tough day covering a story in the field, Dean takes too many pills and accidentally overdoses, landing him in "the ward."
But addiction isn't his only problem.
Untreated depression, grief, and a bit of nihilism has made him resistant to get himself together, and it'll take more than psychiatrist Dr. Fletcher and his one-time teammate and best friend, Sam, to reach him. He'll also meet other patients in the ward who open his eyes to alternate pain management techniques, what his work as a writer means to the community, and what he means to others.
They all have hope for Dean, as long as he can find a little hope for himself.
The Write Prescription is a gripping tale of resilience, friendship, and the power of hope in the face of adversity. Join Dean Carpenter on his quest to find light in the darkest corners of his soul, and discover that even in the depths of despair, there is always a chance for redemption.
