William didn't know something was missing until it happened. He'd been in recovery for alcohol and drugs for years.

Privately, he was addicted to painkillers while publicly saying he was in recovery from alcohol and drug use. How did it go so wrong? With brutal honesty and introspection, William shares what happened after sobriety—after he'd published his memoir.
