On the night of Matt Fleming’s 21st birthday, his friends take him to New Orleans to celebrate. An arranged party with a prostitute ends in drunken violence, and the prostitute is beaten, thrown from a balcony and left for dead. After many years of addiction and insanity, Matt finds sobriety in a faith-based treatment program, where he is called by God to travel the country to help other addicts and alcoholics discover freedom. Even though he is sober, the incident from his 21st birthday torments his conscience. Did the prostitute die? Will he one day be arrested and tried for murder? Should he turn himself in? Why is God silent about the terrible remorse he carries for the incident? Matt’s travels eventually lead him back to New Orleans, where a special seek-and-save mission demonstrates that his heavenly father has been listening all along. However, this mission may prove to be his last. Even though No Road for Cowards is a novel, it is filled with timeless truths about addiction, recovery, and redemption. It is a story of hope and restoration for those suffering from addiction as well as those who love them. Read it and be encouraged.
