It still wasn’t enough. Driven by unchecked ambition and vainglory, he risked it all on himself with no plan B. . . only to discover what happens when burning the boats goes horribly wrong. Each time he thought he'd hit rock bottom, an even rockier bottom laid in wait beneath it. But just when he thought that he’d lost everything a man can possibly lose, he found what really matters. Written from two jails and a rehab clinic, Blind Spots is a shocking, dark and searingly honest memoir, a rollercoaster of decadent highs and soul-crushing lows, and a cautionary tale of how your greatest weakness is always your greatest strength taken too far.
