Drunk

A Novel

By: Ben Stearns

Narrated by: John Powers

Anne McKenzie is missing. Unfortunately for her, the only person who cares is Beck Sherwood, an alcoholic hipster she befriended after meeting him at a house party they were both a decade too old for. Now, she’s gone. Everyone else thinks Anne ran away - that she’s one of hundreds of girls fleeing lives they’re tired of living, but Beck decides to investigate anyway. Soon, he’s chasing her ghost through grimy Baltimore streets, probing her dark online past, and fighting his demons every step of the way, because he knows he’ll either find Anne McKenzie or end up back on a barstool drinking himself into an early grave.

Drunk is a classic detective story with a philosophical twist. Heart-rending, laugh out loud funny, Drunk explores essential questions about what identity is and why crafting one has come to so dominate our lives. Drunk will appeal to anyone who has ever struggled to find meaning, sobriety, or the next cool bar.
