The book is a true story of a man in addiction to alcohol for over forty years. He tries to be a good businessman, he is a very hard worker, and he is a gifted designer and a born salesman, and yet he fails again and again, and refuses to believe that his addiction could be at the root of his problem. Then at his darkest hour of life, he has an epiphany with Jesus Christ, and he is healed from his addiction instantly. He then realizes that it is his job to help all those he meets who are in active addiction. The ensuing story details the victories and defeats of that ministry, as well as the road an addict must walk to be victorious.
