After years of addiction involving heroin, cocaine, and crack, Carr becomes sober and discovers that his memories of his past are often inaccurate or contradicted by others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1038\" data-start=\"697\"\u003eTo resolve this, he interviews people from his life—family, friends, police officers, doctors, and former partners—treating his own history as a journalistic investigation. The book explores addiction, memory distortion, and the reliability of personal narrative, ultimately reframing autobiography as fact-checking rather than recollection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Broadhursts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52568156799315,"sku":"1774","price":12.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/1469\/6787\/files\/57_6aa44e7d-6580-46da-87ab-84d023d58fc1.jpg?v=1765459039","url":"https:\/\/broadhurstsbooks.com\/products\/the-night-of-the-gun-carr-david-1st-edition","provider":"Broadhursts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
