I almost stopped reading this book at the 20% mark due to the extensive amount of minutia written about each character introduced. I felt this great detail detracted from the main storyline, which was about a paralyzed veteran, Cameron Harris, who after 4 years, "miraculously" regains his ability to walk.

The author is a master at character development and describing life in Biloxi, Mississippi. The book probes whether Cameron's recovery was due to a scientific event or a bonifide miracle, as seen from the view point of the protagonist, his physician, family, friends, strangers, and a representative sent from the Vatican. The author blends humor into the main storyline questions, "Who am I" and "What is my life's purpose?"

At the end of the novel the author reveals that the book is based on a true event.

Very well written An enjoyable read. Highly recommend.

Wonderfully, written masterful novel about a paraplegic in Mississippi who walks again. Not, your everyday story and not a simple ending.
