Overview

This is a true story of a woman who survived the streets, the needle, and the silence of being forgotten. A story carved from real pain, real love, and the long road back to herself. Told in piercing fragments and vivid memory, this memoir follows Star, a woman lost in addiction, homelessness, and truama, across years of survival on the margins of society. From empty highways to city parks, abandoned levees to haunted woods, she navigates a world where kindness is rare, trust is dangerous, and the next hit often feels like the only escape. Along the way, she meets broken angels, kind strangers, and ghosts in human form. She forms fragile friendships, suffers devastating losses, and survives moments that should have killed her. With lyrical honesty and brutal clarity, Modern Day Hitch Hicker is not just about addiction. It's about grief, resilience, betrayal, and the slow, painful reclaiming of a soul. This is not a story of overnight recovery or easy redemption. It's a story of fighting for your life when you don't think it's worth saving. It's a story of choosing to live, one broken breath at a time.
