Under Our Roof

A Son's Battle for Recovery, a Mother's Battle for Her Son By Madeleine Dean and Harry Cunnane

By Jeff Johnston

random house

On the morning of October 4, 2016, business owner Jeff Johnston got the call that no parent wants to get. Jeff Johnston’s book about his family’s journey, is an inspiring and much-needed reminder to parents who are wrestling with addiction in their sons and daughters that they are not alone and that it is not their fault.

Under Our Roof is the story of a national crisis suffered in the intimacy of so many homes, told with candor through the dual perspectives of a mother rising in politics and a son living a double life, afraid of what would happen if his secret were exposed. In this memoir, they discuss the patterns of a family dealing with an unspoken disease, the fear that keeps addicts hiding in shame, and the moments of honesty, faith, and personal insight that led to Harry’s recovery.
