Addict, the most amazing
true life story ever told, has captured the hearts of readers all over
the world.
In his autobiography, Stephen
Smith has given a most revealing insight into the inner tormented mind
of an addict. At the age of fourteen, caught stealing, he was locked in
an asylum and after being sexually molested by a doctor, he was given his
first amphetamine tablet.
What followed, beginning
with his involvement as a school boy apprentice in the Sophia Loren jewel
robbery, was a 20 year roller coaster ride to hell on earth.
Taking up to 100 tablets
a day in a bizarre life of crime and lunacy, he fell from being a millionaire
playboy living in a mansion with fast cars and horses, to sleeping in a Salvation Army
Mission. He ended up living in the streets for over five years, sleeping
with the winos in shop doorways.
Addict the book tells
all the robberies, the gangsters, and how Stephen, drugged to the eyeballs,
hid hundreds of thousands of pounds all over London.
Today Stephen is a
successful property developer and is married with two teenage sons. Read how,
destitute in the gutter, he fell in love and step by step climbed back
to life.
Addict is a story
of ruination and a story of recovery, a story of destitution but most
of all a story of hope. Addict is a story of living proof that no matter
how low we go, we can, with love climb back.
Addict out now in
