HIGH ACHIEVER - TIFFANY JENKINS KARTONIERT (TB)

An up-close portrait of the mind of an addict and a life unraveled by narcotics-a memoir of
captivating urgency and surprising humor that puts a human face on the opioid crisis. Raw 
brutal  and shocking. Move over  Orange Is the New Black.-Amy Dresner  author of My Fair Junkie
When word got out that Tiffany Jenkins was withdrawing from opiates on the floor of a jail cell
people in her town were shocked. Not because of the twenty felonies she'd committed  or the
nature of her crimes  or even that she'd been captain of the high school cheerleading squad
just a few years earlier  but because her boyfriend was a Deputy Sherriff  and his
friends-their friends-were the ones who'd arrested her. A raw and twisty page-turning memoir
that reads like fiction  High Achiever spans Tiffany's life as an active opioid addict  her 120
days in a Florida jail where every officer despised what she'd done to their brother in blue 
and her eventual recovery. With heart-racing urgency and unflinching honesty  Jenkins takes you
inside the grips of addiction and the desperate decisions it breeds. She is a born storyteller
who lived an incredible story  from blackmail by an ex-boyfriend to a soul-shattering deal with
a drug dealer  and her telling brims with suspense and unexpected wit. But the true surprise is
her path to recovery. Tiffany breaks through the stigma and silence to offer hope and
inspiration to anyone battling the disease-whether it's a loved one or themselves.
