“Beyond the fascinating details and geopolitical intricacies of his journey through captivity and eventual release, Jorge’s personal spiritual construct is even more striking. His articulation of the human spirit and its interconnection with all facets of life is a journey in itself. While you might approach this book for its international intrigue, you will leave with much more profound insights.”
—Mickey Bergman,
founder, CEO, and chief intergovernmental mediator, Global Reach.
“If you want a gripping and impactful story of one man’s path to self-mastery and enlightenment, then this is your book. But this book is not about Jorge’s path – it is about yours. Read his words and let your journey begin.”
—Ambassador Roger D. Carstens,
special presidential envoy for hostage affairs, 2020-2025
“Jorge Toledo’s story is a beautifully written testament to the strength of the human spirit when inspired by love and faith. His captivating memoir encapsulates both the horror and human cost of an unjust arrest and the gratitude and deep joy of freedom.”
—Diane Foley,
president and founder of the James W. Foley Legacy Foundation
“Jorge L. Toledo’s powerful story leaves no doubt about the injustice, inhumanity, and widespread impact of wrongful detention at a time when we are seeing a worrying increase in these cases. Nonetheless, Toledo’s resilience and human spirit take the reader down a path of hope, growth and recovery. This is a sensitive and touching account of hostage survival.”
