Sarina Wheatman

    Tridsaťročná kariéra terapeutky závislostí v liečebných zariadeniach v Spojenom kráľovstve, Holandsku a na Jersey inšpirovala autorku k písaniu. Vďaka vlastnej skúsenosti s dlhším obdobím triezvosti využíva metódy, ktoré aplikovala v praxi aj vo svojich knihách. Jej cieľom je „meniť vnímanie po jednej knihe“, pretože ju neustále udivuje, ako málo je závislosť pochopená. Autorka dúfa, že svojím dielom prispeje k zmene znepokojujúcich štatistík úmrtí na následky závislosti a pomôže odbúrať stigmu spojenú s touto duševnou chorobou.
