Description
Corby Ledbetter’s life unravels under the pressures of new fatherhood, unemployment, and a hidden addiction, culminating in a devastating act that fractures his family and sends him to prison. Inside, he confronts violence, guilt, and the harsh realities of confinement, yet finds unexpected connection through a compassionate librarian, a vulnerable young inmate, a kindhearted cellmate, and his mother’s unwavering faith. As Corby searches for meaning and a way to reckon with what he has done, he must face whether love, forgiveness, and redemption can survive the consequences of tragedy. A deeply compassionate exploration of remorse, resilience, family, and the possibility of transformation.
