Chris’ life was plagued with many struggles and hardships. His father left him and his mother when he was 6 years old, throwing them into poverty and leaving his mother bitter as she resorted to neglect and abuse. After dropping out of high school with little to no possibility for employment, Chris quickly turned to crime as his way of life. Desperate for ‘family’, love and attention, he joined the inner city gang for protection. Unfamiliar with the lifestyle, Chris’ attempts in criminal activity were sloppy and he was continuously seized by the law. The gang, not wanting to be caught by Chris’ slatternly work, eventually turned on him, threatening his life. He became a target by his own gang and knew there was only one escape from the group - death. His attempt to find acceptance, even in a group of vicious, heartless thugs, had now turned into a fight to survive. Homeless, hopeless and on the run in the large city, Chris huddles near a dumpster for refuge. Alone, cold and confused, he drifts off to sleep only to awake to what begins as a nightmare. From 1998 back to 1868 his fight to survive fills the pages of this book with excitement. New values, new morals, an entirely new life awaits. Through the power of family, faith and love, he soon realizes he found where he belongs. He found home. He didn’t get here by choice, so how could he fight to stay? |
