Death Will Help You Leave Him

Sober alcoholic Bruce Kohler discovers that there's a lot more to recovery than putting down the booze in the sequel to Death Will Get You Sober.

With his friends, Jimmy the computer wiz and Barbara the world-class codependent, he gets drawn into investigating the murder of a suspected drug dealer and rehab graduate whose attractive girlfriend, Luz, is the prime suspect.

But Bruce's love addiction really kicks in when he takes up with his ex-wife again. Laura is fragile, compelling, and bent on self-destruction. In comparison, going after the murder suspects—a dysfunctional Italian family, a drug kingpin, and a motley crew of the victim's rehab buddies—is a healthy agenda.

The chase takes Bruce and his friends to a funeral in Brooklyn, an Italian bakery, an upscale lingerie boutique, a SoHo art gallery, and the church basements of AA.
