A Perfect Tragedy: Finding Purpose in Pain, Loss, and Addiction

For Jason Lennox, waking up in a jail cell wasn't unusual, but on December 9, 2010, he found himself facing a wake-up call unlike any other. Without the drugs and alcohol that had been his only escape, forced to confront his deeply rooted pain for the first time, and facing the law at last after a year spent on the run, he wanted just one thing: an easy way out of this world. But backed into a corner for the final time, he made a desperate call for help that would give him one last chance.

In this raw and poignant memoir, Jason shares the true account of his journey to and through one of the deadliest diseases of our time: addiction. From heartbreaking tragedy to unimaginable salvation, his authentic account of addiction and recovery is an unflinching look at the reality behind one of the greatest public health crises our world has ever seen.
