How does a smart medical student end up spending most of his adult life in prison? Easy, Fred Moore learns, if you chase the elusive bliss of crack cocaine all the way to the end game of a bankrupt soul. In "I Once Was Lost," Fred reveals the vivid, unvarnished story of how his charmed middle-class lifestyle crumbled under the weight of his addiction to crack cocaine-a relentless addiction that drove him to betray his family, throw away the opportunity to attend medical school, and spend much of his adult life in and out of prison. A powerful story of one man's reckless existence told with humor and gut-wrenching honesty, "I Once Was Lost" also explores a spiritual journey that allowed Fred to ask the hard questions that many are unwilling to ask-and find the answers that ultimately healed his life.
