Shadows, Roads, & Redemption

Winner: Most Hopeful Read Booky, BookyAwards

For half a century, I lived with memories that rippled through my body like the fear placed there by a woman who chose to alter the trajectory of a little boy's life. Young Jac takes you down a long and winding road inside the mind of a child, revealing the devastating impact of what it means to live through the unlivable. Jac, now a retired truck driver, husband, and father, guides you gently through the arduous task of reconciling the fear and horrible memories that racked his mind for decades. The road to redemption is filled with joy, sorrow, uncertainty, anger, confusion, and finally, peace. This book is for anyone living in silence. These words are for you. Join Jac as he pays homage to the joy of trucking and the endless black ribbon that kept him from dying in the dark. My heart is a paradox: a lighthouse and a storm.
