Infused with love and a startling sense of intimacy, "Diary of a Crack Addict's Wife is a searing narrative about the journey from darkness to light that ultimately holds out hope for every woman seeking the strength to change her life. So begins Cynthia Hunter's harrowing, unflinchingly candid true story of one woman's vicarious descent into a nightmare of drugs, fear, and violence. At twenty-five, Hunter was a respected army veteran with a good job, a sweet seven-year-old son, and a no-nonsense attitude. She was the sort of take-charge woman no one ever thought to worry about. But from the moment she first set eyes on Mark Davis, the man with "the tight-framed body..jet-black wavy hair and those beautiful brown eyes," Cynthia fell hard. Gregarious, endlessly charming, and employed on Wall Street, Mark promised Cynthia the world. What she didn't know was what a world it would be: the world of a crack addict's wife. Three months pregnant when she discovered the truth about Mark, Cynthia hid her secret from friends, family, and coworkers. Meanwhile, her husband's worsening addiction transformed him from a loving, generous man into a monster capable of anything. In this mesmerizing, heart-wrenching memoir, the author delivers a straightforward account of her three-year rollercoaster ride with the addict she loved: the stealing, the lying, the betrayals, the terrifying bursts of violence that left her fearing for her life, the tearful reconciliations and failed attempts at rehab, the birth of their child, and the final, desperate act that allowed Cynthia to liberate herself at last.
