It has been said that you can find the most unpredictable friendships in the strangest of situations. If somebody were to tell you that one of the most well-known art connoisseurs could become the inseparable best companion of a less-than-poor slave from Red River Parish, Louisiana, would you believe them? Ron Hall, the owner of one of the most renowned art dealers in the state of New York, although stubborn in his own ways, was no match for his tenacious wife Deborah. Better known as MIss Debbie throughout the story, she demonstrates that it only takes the love and compassion of one woman to bring the most unlikely people together when she persuades her husband to befriend one of the most feared men in the homeless community; Denver Moore.

In this heartfelt story of love, pain, loss, and determination, we can see that even the most gruesome tests of faith can be overcome. This story has the power to take an emotional hold to the mind, making it feel as though you are there experiencing the manifold of trials with the people themselves. With the help of Lynn Vincent, this compelling story was brought forth, and it just goes to show that you truly cannot judge a book by it's cover.
