The emotional, incredible true story of Neil White, a man who discovers the secret to happiness, leading a fulfilling life, and the importance of fatherhood in the most unlikely of places—the last leper colony in the continental United States.

“A remarkable story of a young man’s loss of everything he deemed important, and his ultimate discovery that redemption can be taught by society’s most dreaded outcasts.” —John Grisham

“This book has Oxford, MS and Ole Miss connections, and tells the story of a man imprisoned for white-collar crime in a Louisiana prison for non-violent prisoners which is also a sanatorium for lepers. Though not Christian in focus, the memoir portrays the deep love and humanity of people suffering painful disfigurements and social stigma. Though not technically as resource for our study on Job, it certainly can be parallel reading.” —Pastor Paul Long
