From Robert Dugoni, the Wall Street Journal and New York Times bestselling author, comes a luminous coming-of-age story that nestles close to John Irving territory—a tale of friendship, faith, and finding your way home.
Sam Hill was born different. With red pupils caused by ocular albinism, he endured the cruel taunts of classmates who called him “Devil Boy” and “Sam Hell.” But Sam’s story isn’t one of darkness—it’s about the extraordinary light found in unlikely friendships and the resilience of the human spirit.
Buoyed by his mother’s unwavering faith and his father’s steady wisdom, Sam finds salvation in two fellow misfits: Ernie Cantwell, the only African American student in their Catholic school, and Mickie Kennedy, a force of nature who storms into Our Lady of Mercy and upends everything Sam thought he knew about the world. Together, they navigate the complexities of growing up different in 1960s California.
Forty years later, Sam is a small-town eye doctor haunted by a tragedy that drove him away from everything he loved. As he looks back on his life, he embarks on a journey halfway around the world—this time with his eyes wide open—confronting what changed him, defined him, and finally understanding what truly matters.
Winner of Suspense Magazine‘s Crimson Scribe Award, this deeply moving novel explores themes of acceptance, redemption, and the enduring power of friendship. Perfect for readers who cherish character-driven literary fiction with heart and soul.
