About this audiobook
Shuttled among orphanages and foster homes since he was 11, Wesley Benfield-newly converted-is trying to turn over a new leaf. But two things are keeping him from a straight-and-narrow kind of existence: lust for Phoebe and a National Steel Dobro bottleneck guitar. There's more than one way for an ungainly white boy to find a little soul, and Wesley strikes out on his own path of redemption.
