Nick Fletcher isn't falling apart.

Not exactly. And not yet.

He still has his job. He has his clever lines and quick wit that keep clients happy and colleagues laughing. From the outside, he looks like a man who has everything under control.

Inside, it's a different story.

Vodka for breakfast. Cocaine as a snack. Relationships that burn out faster than they begin. Nick has spent years perfecting the balance. Just drunk enough to cope. Just sober enough to get away with it.

But when the illusion of the life he's built starts quietly collapsing, Nick risks losing it all. He is forced to confront the one thing he's avoided his entire adult life: himself.

Wry, honest, and painfully human, Functioning follows one man stumbling toward redemption.

One bad decision, awkward apology, and reluctant step forward at a time.
