A dark tale of a young
woman's descent into the hell of drug addiction."I could feel my chin
falling towards my chest, my back hunching forward. My body was acting
on its own, and my mind was empty, like all my memories had been erased.
There was scenery behind my lids. Aqua colored water and powdery sand
that extended for miles. I was never going back to coke. I wanted more
heroin. And I wanted it now."Leaving behind a nightmarish college
experience, nineteen-year-old Nicole and her best friend Eric escape
their home of Bangor, Maine to start a newlife in Boston. Fragile and
scared, Nicole desperately seeks a new beginning to help erase her past.
But there is something besides freedom waiting for her in the shadows- a
drug that will make every day a nightmare.Heroin.With one taste, the
love that once fowed through Nicole's veins turns into cravings. Tracks
mark the passing of time, and heroin's grip gets tighter. It holds her
hand through deaths and prostitution, but her addiction keeps her in the
darkness. When her family tries to strike a match to help light her
way, Nicole must choose between a life she can hardly remember, or a
love for heroin she'll never forget.
