Written by dependency counselor Dorothy Marie England, a recovering dependency sufferer herself, Smoke and Mirrors exposes the unreal world in which the dependent person lives and the tricks used to deceive self and others. Drawing from the 12-step program of Alcoholics Anonymous, England completes the circle of addiction recovery by clearly establishing the importance ones relationship with God plays in a full and freeing recovery. An important book for any leader and for those who deal with dependency in their friends and family.

Ms. England's book reminds me in the particularly memorable way of any good story that there is both danger and delight in this activity of living. -Gloria M.
